Engine sputters/dies
For some reason my truck keeps dying at idle while I'm in an intersection. It will not start for about 5min or so and it runs fine.
It seems to only be when it's warm outside. I have no idea what it could be, no check engine light, but I have not checked the codes. Kinda feels like it could be a vapor lock. Helppp!

Check the fuel pressure, see what your getting.
Does it die like someone just turned off the key? Or does it jump and sputter and then die?
If it just quits like someone turned off the key it might be the ICM.
