'03 died and Wont start

Ok guys this is my problem, left the house to grab a bite to eat, after painting the living room, and when I was done eatting I went out to the truck and started it. It started fine and idled fine for about 20 seconds then died. I tried to crank on it but it sounded like I had no fuel. I even cracked one of the injectors and fuel was running out of it. What went wrong? I have an 03 3500

Is this the first time it had a problem/symptom related to a hard start? One possibility is that some '03 have hard/no-start problems. There is an ECM update for that. When was your last update?

Can you fill out your sig also?

Is there something that I could do to get it to the dealer so that they could run the update? This whole thing just doesnt make any since. runs fine then just craps out
