Default 6.5L turbo diesel shuts of shortly after starting

Hello all, I'm new to diesel bombers so be patient with me.
The problem I'm having is on my 95 Chevy k1500 with the 6.5 Detroit turbo diesel. I can't get it to stay running. It started out as a really long crank then started and died 30 seconds later as if the key turned off. Now that's all it will do. I put my spare pmd in and made sure all the fluids including fuel are good and it still acts the same. Please help, I need my truck to get to work.

Additional info... there are no codes to be read. Not even a light on the dash.

Thanks for the reply. I seem to have got it working. Not sure what it was. I messed with the intake grounds and fixed the main vacuum line better than it was fixed previously and now it stays running. I'll be right back here if the problem comes back.
