Then will restart within 2-3 mins sometimes even before i come to a complete stop. I have replaced the and chk'd the fuel relay and fuel pressure, have replaced the cam and crank sensors, still have the problem. It doesn't happen all the time or on a repetitive schedule. It is completely random. I have had it also with the cruise control on and off and while the cruise control was engaged. Any help here is appreciated.

Sounds like the relay did it for him. I had this problem also. Got no codes. Replaced a ton of stuff before finding it was the MAF sensor.

Sounds like a problem I had with mu 850. It was the crankshaft sensor.
