First i would check the crank sensor by looking for rpm's on the tachometer or scan tool if you see any rpm's then crank sensor is good.Then check for leaking injectors and if they are not leaking then you will need to check the ECM it may have failed.

    Tachometer is showing rpm's so crank sensor is probably working...checked spark plugs and they clean . I need tester to check fuel pressure to make sure not leaking. I don't know how to test ECM.....any idea's???

    You need to check all power and grounds going into and coming out of the computer for corrosion or bad connections.You will also need a GM scan tool to check for any error codes pertaining to the computer itself.

    Make sure to pull the fuel rail to see if the injectors are leaking if you have a fuel pressure drop.I had a 2000 Dakota with the same symtom and it was 6 out of 8 injectors dripping fuel when i pull the fuel rail

The check valve on the fuel line at the filter housing may be leaking back not maintaining pressure when the engine is not running.

1997 dodge 1500 starts fine when cold, won't restart when warm.

No, the coil the is not the problem. I would take the ignition module and have it tested. Even though it may not test bad b/c it is still cold, it is more than likely the problem. Have you checked to see if you are getting spark when the trouble occurs?

Truck won't start...

It may be a bad starter or the starter solenoid. If by not starting you mean it will not turn engine, but if the engine is turning then the starter is turning so it is something else all together.
Starters will usually work when they are cold then once warm or hot they will not work.
Hope this helps!
