Talking adding lift or replace factory pump in tank

hello,,
having issues with 2002,,,this has happened several times now,,,start truck , runs for 30-40 seconds, dies,,try to restart,, nothing,,,then wait a minute or two,,then it starts.
hmmm, just replaced fuel filter ,,was dirty, i thought maybe this was issue.
then it did it again today.
so, i am thinking factory pump in tank is going or injector pump is going ,,and it is orginal vp44 pump..with 190,00!!!!!
i thought of adding lift pump so i dont have to drop tank, but from video i just wateched,,i still must drop tank....

any suggestions???
it is a stock truck ,,just a driver,,the lift pumps are double the price,,,??

thanks...

Check for codes, to see what the problem is rather than just replacing parts, as some of the parts you listed are big $$$.

i was at oreillys a few weeks ago ,,and ask if they could check truck for codes,,,guy ask if i had alerts or icons on,,i said no,,as i dont,,,so he said then nohting will show up if they are no icons light up??

i have fuel pump on motor not tank,,figured that out,,,it was replaced about 10-12 years ago...thought would be cheap item to start with.
