Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 with the 5.9L
v8. The truck has done this to me 3 times in
the last 5 months where it will not start but
turns over just fine then I will keep trying to
start it over the next day or two with out
changing a single thing and then it starts and
runs fine. All fluids are good, has spark, has
correct fuel pressure, all gauges work, fuses
are good. I am lost any help appreciated

Does it have spark and fuel when it doesn't start? If you're not sure next time it happens have someone rap on the fuel tank with something soft but heavy if it starts replace the fuel pump. Did you check for injector pulse at this time?

Disconnect one injector then put a test light between the terminals and crank the engine, the light should flash if the system is working.

Went out again this morning and it started right up next time it does this I will check that first, thank you
