Engine Cranks But wont Start
I went to start my truck tonight and it cranked over then shut off. I tried again it turned over and shut off. 
The only thing that has changed since last thurs is that I had my oil changed at jiffy lube and I had them put a synthetic oil in it. I have noticed since then that when I start it up it idles rough for a few minutes. Could this be the problem why it won't start?

Also ..... If they put an aftermarket filter in (one that has improper dimensions), it can cause the oil to drain out of the filter housing. This can cause "starting" problems.
What kind of oil did they use?
