Exclamation 99 Dodge Ram 5.9 DIESEL/ AUTO Won't Restart When Hot?

My truck is a 5.9 DIESEL- AUTO
Truck starts and runs great when first started then it doesn't want to restart again for awhile after we stop. Any ideas? I honestly think it's a sensor somewhere but nothing other than the TPS (Which has been replaced) shows on the codes. Help someone has to know???
My wife told me that you all could HELP? (she's been a member for over 4 years)

Whats missing when it doesn't want to start? Fuel, or spark?

Fuel filters and pump are new and it's a diesel so there's no spark. All it wants to do is crank over after I leave it for 5 minutes.

That makes a difference.......

I don't know squat about the newer diesels. (or the older ones, for that matter.....)

May want to try posting in the diesel section as well. Doesn't get quite the traffic that 2nd gen section does, but, at least they should have a clue about der diesels.
