Default 96 Dodge Ram won't start

I have a 96 1500 5.2L, 5spd. It died while driving up the interstate as i accelerated to pass, and wouldn't restart. When cranked, it will start for about 2 seconds and die again. I checked and it seems to be getting both spark and fuel. I have also replaced the crankshaft position sensor, and have checked all of the wires to make sure the connections are correct, and as it died from running fine, I cannot figure out what the problem is. Any suggestions?

Does the fuel pump prime when you turn the key on?

Can you check your fuel pressure?

You might have pressure, but, are you getting injector pulse?

Where did you get your cam sensor? These trucks don't much care for aftermarket parts in critical locations......

Just for grins, try swapping the ASD relay, for the horn relay. See if that doesn't improve it's attitude.
