1996 Dodge Ram 1500 starts up runs for a bit and then shuts down, like you turned the key off but didn't. Have changed the fuel pump, distributor and cap, plugs, plug wires, catalytic converter, TPS. After changing the TPS it got better, but is still stalling out after driving a short while. It killed slowing to make a left turn. Checked codes with Autozone, threw nine codes originally but after changing TPS and clearing codes the TPS code popped up again, this was the only code and it referenced voltage. HELP! Where do we go from here> Oh it does this more when it is hot outside than in cool weather.

Have you checked wiring to the TPS? Is the wiring harness / plug in good condition?

When a fuel pump goes out it can do so one of two ways either it can quit and stop working or it can fail intermittently causing the engine to stall or not start.
