Check the fuel pump pressure. When the pump gets worn the pressure drops too low and a low pressure switch cuts off the injector. When started after sitting for a while the pressure surge deactivates the switch for a while. Have you changed the fuel filter?

Mate I use to drive a freightliner and it cut out on me one day, I eventually got it started but cut out again after about 5 minutes, I rang a mechanic to come out and he found a heat sensor wire came off the radiator and that caused the motor to cut out... Hope I haven't wasted your time.......

1997 chevy 2500 4x4 stumbles

Fuel pump is most likely the cause. Probably just barely making the required pressure to start. Needs to maintain 60-66 psi while cranking to start.
