Default 2000 1500 5.2 keeps cuttin off

i just replaced the fuel pump and it was all good then it cut off and took a while to start back up then did it again. It's done it about 10 times and 2 fuel pumps. Any ideas?

Find out what's missing when it quits. Spark, or fuel.

These issues are difficult to diagnose.
I would check grounding. I had similar problem and it was fuel pump grounding.
You just have to narrow down what is causing it.
When it does not want to start, check the fuel pump if its working.

Default Cutting off intermediate. ..

Check any rubber hoses connected to the fuel system . I had this problem once and this was found to be a problem causing the engine to shut down.
The pump was collapsing the hose (elbow) after running for a short time and the engine stopped . Then the hose would regain it's position and starting was delayed getting the gas back to the engine.
May be worth checking...
