1999 Dodge diesel starts and dies

New fuel pump and filter, the problem is getting worst, before it would run for a while then it acted like I turned the key off. Now it starts and dies right away. Had a fuel pump go out a few years ago and kill my injector pump, this does not seam to be the same. Thank for any help.

air leak before lift pump, is possible anyways seen it lots on the diesels, good to rule out anyways

It wasnt a Dodge, but the last Powerstroke I worked on did the same thing.. acted like someone reached over and turned the key off. It was the crankshaft position sensor.

I would check for air leak like stump said and then check the TPS. TPS is a common problem on the cummins.
