Default Help..Intermittent Starting Question

Help!!! I've got a 92 Power Ram 150 318v8 auto. Truck runs awesome most of the time. Every couple weeks it will start and then appear to run out of gas...then only turn over for about 5-8 hours. After this it will run fine for another couple weeks. Someone suggested the fuel pump relay... Any other thoughts would be appreciated.

As simple as it seems, clean your battery terminals. Sorta sounds like my ram when I bought it. Also check the inline fuse holder off the pos terminal.

Inspect your charging systems (battery, starter and alternator) , you can start from that. A fuel pump getting jammed could also be the cause.
