I didn't catch the message the first time around. I had the exact same
problem with my 95 a year ago. Got to work, turned it off, came out for
lunch, the truck started ran for a second then died.. I bet you are pulling
a code 42 or 43. If so, check the wiring under the washer tank, and the
wiring to that big-assed connector on the drivers side firewall.
