An engine can cut off due to various reasons, including fuel supply issues, such as clogged fuel filters or empty tanks, which prevent adequate fuel flow. Electrical problems, like a dead battery or faulty ignition system, can also lead to engine failure. Additionally, overheating due to a malfunctioning cooling system or sensor failures may cause the engine to shut down to prevent damage. Lastly, issues with the air intake, such as a blocked air filter, can disrupt the air-fuel mixture, leading to engine shutdown.

1995 E350 diesel Engine shuts down intermittently. On The 7.3 what causes the engine to shut off when you turn the key to the off position?

The reason the engine shuts off intermittently is probably a crank position sensor, this is an electronic part which mounts on the front of the engine. When this goes bad the engine will sometimes just not work, or will work sometimes but then just dies. Fuel shut off is what happens when you turn the key off. The power to the fuel pump is cut which ends fuel flow to the engine.
