Truck stumbled on startup

First issue with my 04.5. Went out this morning to start it and it cranked but stumbled and died. Did it twice, then on the third attempt I gave her some pedal and she cranked right up. Fuel filter?

Do you still have the factory on the filter LP? When mine went south this is exactly what it did at 22,000 miles...LOL First thing I would do is check for codes.

I have to look and see if the factory LP is still on there. My truck has 84k on it. How do I use the Diablo to check for codes?

Have you looked at the wiring going over the compressor lines for a shorted/chaffed wire. There was a sticky at the top of this page for electrical issues.
