Truck will not start, need help!
Today my truck died as I was driving down the road and it would not start back up. It just died all of a sudden and when I tried to start it, it acted like it was not getting any fuel, so I though a bad fuel pump. I went back about 4 hrs later to tow it and it started back up and ran just fine. I drove it about a mile away to a buddies house and it ran fine. I was going to start it up and let it run for a bit to see what it would do, it started fine and ran for a few minutes and dies again. It sarted right back up and ran for 30 seconds and died again and now no start again. Now I think that it is somthing electrical? It tries to start, but does not just cranks. It acts like the time I put in my DP tuner chip with a bad connection but I unhooked the chip and still nothing. Any idea's?

It is a 99.5 and yes it was just like I turnd the key off all gauges dropped! Yes you can hear the fuel turn on when I turn the key on. As far as the tach moving when i try to start it I do not know I will try in the moring, the truck is an hour away from me now. Can I get the CPS at auto zone or some place like that? Were is the cps at?

The best bet would be an IH or Ford dealer. IH will run around $110, Ford will go for about $160 +/-. Either way, you will most likely have to wait until tomorrow.
There have been many posts about the auto parts CPS either being DOA or VERY short lived.
