Truck started normal drove my girl friend to work about 2 miles away went to back out to leave her work and the trucked shut off. I cranked for a good minute and it started. Drove 30 feet was waiting to pull out into to traffic and it shut off just cranks no fire. I have replace the crank shaft sensor and coils. It has fuel pressure and starting fluid sprayed in it and no fire.
