My 2000 chev. 2500, 5.7 has a problem sometimes when it warms up. After I shut it off & restart, & run down the road, it's like the fuel is shutting off. I have checked the fuel pressure when this happens, and it is fine. Sometimes it seems to miss going down the road, not much. It is getting rid of a little water also. Kinda of had a similar problem with a 96. Turned out to be a distributor. Any thing else I might check?

If the fuel pressure is within specs-test the following below

Oxygen sensor.
Catalytic converter.
Fuel injectors dirty/sticking.
Mass airflow sensor/Airflow meter.
Throttle position sensor.
Manifold absolute pressure sensor.
EGR Valve
Fuel pressure regulator leaking or defective fuel pump.
False air leakage.
Fuel contamination.
Foul/defective spark plugs.
Open spark plug wires.
Ignition coil/Coil packs defective.
Incorrect ignition timing.
Cap and rotor.

Note:If it doesn't apply disregard.
