Sounds like there is an interuption of power to the ip shut off valve. Run a wire direct to the shut off valve and then start it. Drive it around and see if it still dies. You would need to disconnect the factory wire first. Make sure it is out of the way and taped off so as no to short on anything. You will also have to manually unhook the wire that you run to shut the truck down. If it runs fine this way then you would have a short or break in the factory wire somewhere.

But seems to me like it's a heat soaked injector pump as well :humm:

I agree .. either a short or a faulty solenoid ... either way it shouldnt be too bad to fix ... :c:
