I can't remember the exact fuel pressure at the fuel filter, but I think it was around 60 psi. I don't think its a fuel issue. I have had the filter housing off, cleaned, fpr cleaned, new filter. Reinstalled, no change in the symptoms.

After it idles for a while and dies, I can start it back up if I use ether, but it will not start without it. It strange that once I start the truck with ether, I can turn it off with the key, and then immediately start it without ether. I did this about 20 times today. But once I let it run 5 - 10 minutes, it always dies, and the only way to start it is to ether it.

Any ideas? Thanks
