rpms fluctuating then truck died

While towing hay up to my ranch today my 98 dodge 2500 5.9 24v engine started to fluctuate 30-60 rpm while climbing our hill I thought it was some bad fuel so after draining my fuel/water separator I tried to continue and my motr died. after two attempts at starting it I had to bleed my fuel lines and replace my filter. is this the end of my problem?

I hope I'm wrong but it sounds like your injection pump is broke or fixin' to die. Are you getting fuel to the injectors? Is truck throwing any codes? Sorry!! Take care!
