Fuel Problem

Disclaimer: I read old posts but didn't really find any answers.

I was coming home from school today and my truck suddenly dies. My front fuel pump was going out, but the back one worked perfectly before today. Anyway, the truck dies. I went and got some gas for the back tank and put it in, but no help. I guess my question is do you guys think the back fuel pump went out instantly, too? It just seems to coincidental to me, I was thinking maybe it is some sort of electrical problem. Please help!

Bad connection? Bad ground? Selector switch?

Might not even be fuel related, just a coincedence. Did you check codes or for spark?
