Hi,,,this is weird..not sure which direction to go....drove truck home and shut it off and the next morning it was raining so I started the truck and pulled it up a few feet in the driveway and shut it off...next day my wife went to take the truck to town and it would not start...would roll over but nothing....that was yesterday...so today I looked at it and cranked it and cranked it and it started to spit and sputter,,,now it starts and idles for a few seconds then it spits and sputters and dies...if you pump the gas pedal you can prolong it running a little longer but it hops and sputters and lightly backfires ..but it starts back up and repeats the same thing..short second or two idle and cuts out ,hops ,sputters and dies....fuel or ignition?...had ignition module checked...its ok....help!!!

1) Need to check the fuel pump fuse, relay, filter, and pump.
2) Whats the fuel pressure?
