My truck starts-up fine but after awhile it turns off. Like you turned it off using the key. I can start it up again just fine, but it doesn't run as long. Each time it runs a shorter period of time.

Hi:
Have you checked the fuel pump pressure? I would start there and move on if it is found to be ok. If you have never done it before, we have a video that explains how to do it. Go to this site:

If you have other questions, let me know. Also, many parts stores rent or lend tools such as a fuel pressure gauge.
