The engine cranked over, but it won’t idle. It dies out like there is no fuel getting to the cylinders.


I checked the fuse, for the fuel pump, did not see one. Then I attempted to start the truck again. It started, so I revved the engine up and it seem to want to cut-out at the end.

Is this a fuel pump issue?
Is this a fuel filter issue?


Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Perform a fuel pressure check this will tell you something about the fuel filter and fuel pump-if okay inspect and test the idle air control valve/TPS/MAF/MAP sensors to include the EGR and PCV valves
