My truck runs great and then just stalls out and then wont start, something is shutting down the fuel pump! If I put a little gas in the throttle body it starts right up. I replaced the gas, fuel filter, fuel relay, and then the pump, without any change. When I replaced the pump I checked the wiring to the pump with a voltage meter and found that I had one live wire going to the fuel guage and the side of the connector that should be feeding power to the pump was dead So my question is "what is shutting down the power to the pump and where might the bad sensor or relay be located

No I haven't checked it because I didn't hit any bumps, and for 3 days in a row it started and ran fine to and from work and then just suddenly stalls out. If I could just get it to go again I'll bring it to get analysed, but I think at this point it's a sensor or pcm, or computer?
