if you have insite try to get a visual on what the fuel pressure is when it catches and see if it falls off before or after it dies.

I think I am going to be doing a fuel check valve as well as a fuel pump tomorrow. I get it run , for a few seconds dies , then looses prime or just won't start . Looks like it has an older reman fuel pump on it already .By the way the lift pump says cummins but in big letters .. MADE IN CHINA .
