You are probably on the right track because it can run a while before it stalls again and you can get it to re-start after bleeding the injectors. If it were a big leak, it would die and not re-start. I would replace all of the rubber lines in case there is a pinhole, but that is good practice anyway if those are old lines...Mark

Thanks for all the help that I received. I ended up adding a external fuel tank to the truck. I ran new lines all the way to the lift pump. Thanks again.
