WHILE RUNNING ON FREEWAYS WITH HOT TEMP, MY MOTORHOME WITH 92 FORD E-350 ENGINE STOPS. THIS HAPPENS IN SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE 1ST TIME IT HAPPENED, THE COMPUTER BOX WAS REPLACED IN MONTIPLIER, IDAHO IN 96 BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST. I CANNOT RUN THE ENGINE IN A PROLONG PERIOD OF TIME DURING SUMMER BECAUSE IT DIES. I WENT TO LOOKED UNDER THE LEFT REAR SIDE OF THE ENGINE BY THE EXHAUST PIPE AND THERE WERE MELTED WIRE INSULATIONS. I TRIED TO TACKED THEM AWAY FROM THE EXHAUST HEAT BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXIST. ANOTHER PROBLEM IS THE ABS LIGHT STAYS ON BUT THE BRAKING WAS OK. HOW CAN I RESOLVE THESE PROBLEMS?
