Day before truck starts for a instant but stalls & will not run at all. Yesterday truck started with 1 try had no problem all day. This morning same as the day before with same type weather for all three days. I didn't have this problem until I replaced spark plug, wires, cap, button, air filter, fuel filter. Since the problem started I have replaced fuel filter( again ) & fuel pump. I have driven the truck over 700 hundred miles since problem started so its not the fuel. Truck runs great when it runs

There could be a problem with the cap but take it off and see if you can turn the rotor in either direction. It shouldn't move at all if it does it may have the gear stripped on dist.
