Hey guys I ahve a problem with this truck, let explain more or less what is the problem. I warm up the engine every morning for about 5 min. after that I drove the truck for about 10 minutes and she stop, after 2 or 3 minutes I re-start the truck again and I can drive it for another 10 minutes and she died again. Do you think the problem is the fuel pump or can be something else? I already change the fuel filter but still have the same problem.

thanks a lot.

Get a can of starting fluid next time it dies out don't and wait for 2-3 mins. Spray the throttle body and see whether it will fire up quick if so its fuel related -Could be also an ignition system conponent problem
