Strange stalling, maybe CPS?

I back into my spot at work tonight, and my truck stalls. Cycle the key, no WTS light, truck spins but won't catch. Cycle the key again same thing. Cycle the key a third time, WTS light comes on and truck starts and idles fine. Mods in my sig, about 115000 miles on truck, regularly maintained, CPS is approx. 12000 miles old. Any ideas?

Does you have a tach reading when cranking. If not CPS is most likley the problem.

Intermitten WTS sounds like bad connection at fuse.

Could be the glow plug relay. CPS should not go after only 12000 but stalling like that would not be the glow plug relay. The intermittant WTS is the GPR though. Might be 2 problems. They always seem to come in 2's...
