Help i was wondering if anyone had an idea as to what would cause my truck to die with no indications while driving. it will start but only runs for a few seconds before dying again. i also have to crank it for a long time to get it to start then no matter how i hold the the throttle it will still die off. is it bad to run ultra low sulfur diesel in this engine?

Welcome to the site. How many miles on the truck? Without it being hooked up to a scanner and pulling data its hard to say whats wrong

Sounds like a fuel delivery or high pressure oil problem. It needs to be checked out by a good tech...
