Rev. My truck was stolen and just got it back ignition switch
was broken and I'm having to hot wire it. Am I missing a wire

replacing hot wire is only way I can get it to Rev.  Just can't

That sounds like the anti thief system is active, it will allow the engine to start then die due to no fuel delivery. Sorry but the only way to fix it is to replace the damaged components and have the system reprogrammed by the dealer or a very good locksmith. It’s not going to be cheap and you may have trouble getting parts. Now you could try used parts but you will still need a reprogram.
