1994 Chevy 4 Dr. 2500 6.5 Diesel start and stall problem

I have a 1994 chevy truck 2500 6.5 turbo Diesel it started to stall and would not start so i replaced the fuel pump and relay, seemed to of solved the problem for 1 day and then started doing it again when it starts and does not stall it runs good but when you shut it off it will either start and run for 2-3 seconds and die or will not start at all
i bought the truck over a year ago and have never had any issues with it till now. is there any hope for it i know almost nothing about diesel engines

Fuel Cut Solenoid: Testing and Inspection
An inoperative shutdown solenoid can cause a no-start condition. Disconnect solenoid harness connector and with ignition switch in the "ON"
position momentarily touch solenoid harness connector to solenoid connector. If a "click" sound is heard, the solenoid circuit is operating
properly. If "click" is not heard, the system should be diagnosed as follows:
1. With test lamp connected to ground and the ignition switch in the "ON" position, backprobe the shutdown harness connector. If the test lamp
does not light check for open circuit form the ignition switch to the solenoid.
2. If the test lamp lights, check the ground circuit between solenoid stud and injection pump cover to see if connectors are clean and tight. If the
connections are not clean and tight repair and retest.
3. If the ground circuit is "OK", remove the injection pump cover. Connect a jumper wire between solenoid ground connector and ground. With
the ignition switch in the "ON" position, momentarily touch shutdown solenoid harness connector to shutdown solenoid terminal. If solenoid
operates, check for internal injection pump problem.
4. If the solenoid will not operate, replace the shutdown solenoid.

What can be the problem with my 1994 chevy silverado 2500 with the 6.5 turbo diesel engine once it reaches normal operation temperture when

If air gets into the Fuel line you will naturally have a problem. The fuel mix is incorrect causing a coughing effect, stutter, and hesitation. Hot air may expand in a line and create short bursts of fuel and then a gap whereby not fuel mist can ignite.

1994 chevy 3500 6.9 diesel you drive it acs like running out of fuel half to bleed lines to get air out to start back up

sounds like u got a clogged fuel filter, or you have got a fuel line somewhere that is sucking air in, could be anywhere from the pump back to the tank, if that shows no luck, get a piece of clear hose and put that just before the pump and look for bubbles, the slightest of bubbles will cause it do run rough and stall
failing this and there is no air bubbles i would say your injector pump needs rebuilding but this is rather unlikely unless u have got a fair few miles on it


hope this helps
