My truck died and I've done all I can to figure it out..(new to trucks + wiring). I'm located in North Jersey and really need to get this running again ASAP. Please help if you can.

All the info I have been able to figure out is detailed here-

does the fuel pump come on for about 10 seconds when you turn the ignition on?

that is probably the case but it's not definite. try doing a fuel pressure check. you will need to buy the gauge and fitting kit for it.

First things first. Disconnect the batterry for ~5 minutes first. I know it sounds incredibaly fucking stupid but it worked for me. (somthing to do with resetting the computer or some shit)
