When I drive my truck for any length of time and stop and turn it off, I can immediatly crank it back up, but if I wait 5 minutes it will turn over but never crank. I have to let it set for 30 minutes to an hour before it will start again. Yesterday I was driving it and it started running bad and then died.
Would not restart, I let it set for couple of hours and went back and it cranked right up and I drove it home.
