Starved for fuel

I got in my truck last night, and went to just normal driving. It sputtered a bit then went on like normal. Didn't think anything of it. Got in today, and on my way to work, just driving normal, don't mash on it at all, and it does it all the way to work. Not sure what it is. Takes a little longer when i start it, crank on it longer than normal. Do you think it is a fuel filter issue? Or would it be injectors? I have the AirDog lift pump in about 2 years ago, and haven't changed the filter. Thanks for the help.

Replacing the filter would be a good start! How is the fuel pressure? Do you have a fuel pressure gauge?

Took it to the shop that put in the AirDog, they replaced the filter for me, only charged me for the filter, found out that the AirDog pump was not working. They replaced the fuse as they saw it was blown, works perfect now. Just wanted to give the fix for me on here. All in all $21.00 fix. Nice to walk away from a shop with only $21.00 lighter.
