My truck engine cranks but will not start and stay running. It just died on me when I was giving my son's battery a jump start. Had it running just enough to make it home and then it quit running. Charged up the battery and changed the fuel pump thinking that was the problem and no success at all. What could be wrong with my truck?

Too bad Paul Harvey is Dead. Because now we can't "get the rest of the story" I think what happened was you accidentally hooked up the battery cables wrong, that's okay, I've done it to, you better check all your fuses including your boxes under the hood inside the cab, and against a firewall on the left side and let me know what you find.
