I agree that ALL fuel lines should be replaced! HOWEVER if the car is on the highway running & stalls, it wouldn't be related to AIR being sucked into the lines. AIR in the lines will make the engine very hard to start after sitting.
Am replacing all fuel lines this weekend. Not expecting this to resolve problem but am doing to rule out air entering system and as preventive measure for future.

For reference the above mentioned relay module IS shown to be located in the fuse box on the dealer diagram but is actually located in the box on the opposite fender well.

Question: Any simple tests available to confirm operation of the relay module vs. shut off solenoid to determine which may be causing the fault?
