DEFINATELY the fuel shut off solenoid. Pull the plunger down to shut it off, for a temporary fix. For a permanant fix trace all the wires and try to determine which wire is not recieving proper voltage or which is shorted out. May also be out of adjustment. The Fuel shut off solenoid is a VERY common problem with the 12 valvers so dont think your all alone on this. If youll just take it slow you will be able to get it licked.

BTW: How exactly have you been shutting the truck off?
