Is the pressure in the fuel system not holding? Fuel pump may be failing or the filter may be bad. Sounds like you're pumping the fuel system back up to pressure before the truck will start. Like when a fuel-injected car runs outta gas and you have to prime the system before it'll start again.
p0352 is ignition coil #2 primary circuit..the engine controller had these circuit problems in this model year..also have seen a crank sensor cause this fault also..if it's not the crank sensor,most likely engine controller
