You're probably right John. Maybe it's time to replace the fuel filter or scan for codes. You can also do a fuel pressure test on the fuel rail. Look for about 50 psi.

Same problem It would run and idle grate until I went to take off and it would stall I added another fuel pump and turned it on and off with toggle switch and I haven’t had the same problems so far and it’s been 2 years
