Will start and dies after 20 seconds

Motor will start after sitting for 40 minutes but will sputter and die afterwards. Checked fuel pressure reads within spec. Injectors are firing fine. Checked for spark, seems to be fine. It was running fine going down the road and then started to sputter and back fire, then wouldn't run.
