Default fuel pumps?

ok so today i started my truck, let it run for bout 5 min and then drove it on to the road and dies? wen i went to turn the key again the fuel pumps didnt kick on(both tanks) so i roled the truck back and forth than the pumps kicked back in. i parked back in my drive way and left it. the fuel pumps still kick on but why would both tanks shut off wen i was on the road?

its a 1992 5.0

Under the hood on the driverside fender.......if you replace the relays and it happens again, pull your passenger side kickpanel off and see if the inertia valve popped up...it's the red piece:

Mine hangs off the back of the air filter box, There's 2 next to each other, that look the same except 1 has a green base (Fuel pump relay) & 1 has a brown base (PCM power relay) They are not interchangeable & both have to be functional for the pumps to get power!
