Ok so today i was driving to work, the power tappered off and the truck started to sputter. When i give it gas it fell on it's face, and had no power. Then the truck turned off on the side of the road and wouldn't start back up. When ui try to start it i don't hear the fuel pump prime anymore at this point. Then about twenty minutes later i try to start it and it starts but can only idle. I put it in drive and it dies, or if i give it gas it sputters. Any ideas on what it can be? My first thought is the fuel pump, but i don't wanna just throw time and money at this truck.

When was the last time the fuel filter was replaced?? Need to check your fuel pressure.

Sounds like a fuel problem check psi then like gmtech said check filter. Kind of sounds like it might be plugged.
