93 F150 Starting issue

I am new to this forum. Here is my issue, I have a 1993 F150 5.0 Fuel injected, truck will start and run for approximatly 10 - 20 seconds and just die. I can wait 10 -15 min and truck will start and run great and die again. I started truck and let die, removed schrader valve cover and depressed with a small screwdriver..NO Preasure. I have duel tanks and does the same on both tanks no differance...I need help with this bad I am at a loss.

You have to push the lines deeper into the filter as you insert the tool. that takes the pressure off the garter spring and allows the tool to slip under it and unlatch the filter. Then you can pull them out

I've also found that massive amounts of profanity are quite useful
