Default truck won't start

Got a 95 3/4 ton cummins started it up the other morning just fine but after a few minutes it died and wouldn't start again.
All it does now is just turn over and every once in awhile it might try to crank,any help would be much appreciate the help.

welcome to df... have you swapped out the fuel filter lately? no fuel would be my 1st guess... fuel pump, fuel pump relay etc...

bingo fuel. Spin off the fuel filter cap and see if there is fuel in there.

Def check fuel first. I'd crack the line going from the fuel filter to the Bosch pump. Then push the lift pump plunger and see if you have fuel.

Check the shut off solenoid for movement.


Keep us updated, please.

Good luck.
