So I have an 04' 1500 Hemi. 62,000 miles. I recently had the fuel pump replaced. The 1st time I filled the tank, the check engine light came on(ran fine). After 25-30 miles it went off. It ran fine until a couple hundred miles later when it acted the same as when the fuel pump went out. Could I have a bigger problem?...if so where do I start looking. I will soon get it back to my mechanic to check it out and read codes.
Thanks.

Certainly sounds like you have a bigger problem. What's it been doing that prompted a fuel pump replacement? What were the symptoms before and what are the symptoms now? Any code history?

Initially, it all but quick running and I was able to limp it off a road safely. I turned it off. Turned it back on, it ran, and then had the code read. I can't remember the #, but it was the throttle body code. So I cleaned the TB and it ran fine for a week...until I drove some where and when I went to leave it would not start...no fuel...pump replaced. Recently, I was going to leave a store, I cranked it and it sputtered out, with second crank it started. On the way home from there...it sputtered and had significant power loss...I went to pullover but it acted fine. I made it home. The next morning it wouldn't start.
