My truck acts like it is spitting when it gets to about 1500RPM and takes a minute to take off from a dead stop. Died going around a corner and refused to start again untill it cooled off. Do not beleive it is the fuel pump because usually when they go out, they dont come back. But if you can point me to any sensores and or anything else you think could cause this it is greatly appreciated.

When the problem occurs, if it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it while you visually check for spark at the plugs. If you have spark everywhere, use a gage cand check fuel pressure. You have to test when the problem is ongoing. Any applicable mil codes?
