Hello, I go out and I can start the truck up and they started for maybe two seconds and then stalls. It would do this when the the passenger door would get open or locked and then we have to wait forty minutes we go back up there and then it would start right up. But now it does not seem to want to stay started anymore so I do not know what the problem could be. We thought it could be the security alarm but appreciate anything you have to offer.

Hello,

When The truck stall do you have a security light flashing? if not it sounds like you have a vacuum leak or the throttle bore needs to be serviced here is a guide to help us get started.
