it will start and run for awhile fine till it warms up and then just dies
I had to replace my crank sensor and that's all the parts store carried, BWD Had to use so i could drive my truck). After a short time(about 20 minuets run time) it would cut out. Replaced it with Delphi one and been running great ever since. BWD Junk! If you can get a scanner or a code reader for your phone that reads live data and you will see where the problem is. Most likely crank sensor or the wiring to it.

When the truck won't run see what you are losing.

Update for everyone, I replaced the cam sensor. Changed the plugs (plug 5 was a bitch to get out, and plug 6 was very very dirty) is running really good now. Just want to thank everyone for their help its much appreciated !
