Bought the truck used last november but have had absolutely no problems with it untill now. I parked it last night and it was running great. Started it up this morning and it was running a little rough. I live in Alaska and it is turning into winter here-so I thought it was just runnin a little rough, maybe pushing some water out of the gas etc, I gave it a quick pump on the accelerator and it evened out. Took off driving 5 minutes later and after about 50 yards started chugging and acting sluggish. Within 200 yards it had died and would not start. When I turn on the key I can hear the fuel pump start, but it wont run. I can get it to start and if i dont touch the gas it will idle perfectly for a short while and then start runnin rough and die. Eventually I cant even get it to start. Any ideas?
