My 94 Dodge B150 van  (about 150k) with a 3.9L tbi stalls at highway speeds.
No bucking, coughing, rough runing or any other warning symptom -- just dies
at 60 mph.  Also dies at low speeds and sometimes also at idle -- same way.
Sometimes it will restart imediately, sometimes I must wait two or three
minutes before it will start.  Did complete tune-up: air & gas filters, wires,
plugs, cap, rotor, egr valve. No codes set other than egr.   Drove it  about
200 continous miles at 65/70 mph with no problem. Next day it stalled four
times within 30 miles at 65 mph  Doesn't appear to be weather related -
stalls on both wet & dry days.  Anyone have any ideas here?

If you have the original cat it could be clogged.

Or a fuel pump

It could be the PCM as well.  Try disconnecting the battery overnight to
purge everything from it and see what happens.

I would check fuel filter and pump first.

The pickup in the distributor. Disconnect the pickup cable and check
the continuity while wiggling the cable.
