my truck dies while driving down the road. Sometimes it starts. I recently turned the engine off and then it wouldn't. thought maybe it needed gas put gas in and disconnected the battery (positive only) to reset computer. It started right up. drive for 4 or 5 days and it died again. This time it cranks but won't turn over. it acts like its not getting enough gas or it doesn't get any gas. could it be the fuel pump. I disconnected the positive to the battery. didn't help. what could it be?

check for spark and
also check fuel pressure
you can check site videos it shows u how

let me know what is missing
no fuel I would say check fuel pump
no spark check crank sensor

Risk of fire.

Keep cigarettes, sparks, open flame, and other
sources of ignition away from vehicle.
Gasoline, methanol, and oxygenated fuels are toxic
and flammable and must be handled appropriately
