5.9
I have a 2004 dodge 3500 5.9 with 245,000 miles on it. The motor has started giving me some trouble it will start and run just fine, then if you turn it off it won't start again let it sit for several hours then it will start again. Then one day it wouldn't start at all, and what i mean it will turn over but won't fire. I know there could be a number of things but has any body had this problem. I am used to old diesels with out a brain. The lift pump has been replaced there is no service engine light on.

Did this start when the lift pump was replaced? Sounds like a fuel/vapor lock type issue
