My dodge dakota 4.7 starts without any problem and runs great for approximately one minute. It then starts floundering and will die. You can turn it off or wait for it to die, and restart it and it runs super until the next time you start it. Hot or cold not difference.

Sounds like you have a restricted fuel filter that is causing your vehicle to start sputtering because it can't meet the engine's demand for fuel and then dies when fuel is depleted. After your vehicle stops running, fuel starts seeping by and you can start it again with ease hot or cold and you get the same results moments later if this sounds right replace your fuel filter.
This only happen one time each time you start the truck. After you restart it, you can drive anywhere for how ever long and it runs great. Stop for 15 minute, an hour, or a few hours and you will again have to start it after one minute.This only happen one time each time you start the truck.

Just a thought! There is a provision where when fuel pressure drops the ignition is shut off. This is to prevent pumping when the fuel line is compromised. Monitor fuel pressure to see if it drops during normal operation.
The oil capacity should be 4 qts with filter change (approximate). Safely fill with 4 qts and new filter and run the truck for a few minutes. Let set a few minutes and add to fill mark on stick if need be. Hope this will help you.
