Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I got up this morning and My truck would not start. it would turn over fine but it
just would not run. later on this afternoon My Wife got in it and tried it several
times and it wouldn't start but then She tried pumping the accelerater and after
a few tries it started  up. She killed it and tried it a couple more times and it
started fine but I know something is not right. What might it be??

It’s probably the crankshaft positioning sensor. The same thing happened to my wife’s car. Good luck.
