My truck all of a sudden started idling really rough about a month ago, then didn't do it again till a few days ago, now it won't stay running longer than about 10-15 seconds

I replaced all the O-rings on the fuel injectors and a couple bad return lines... no leaks there; I even added a in-line electronic fuel pump made for diesel (by mr. gasket, bought from Advance Auto)

while i do suspect the lift pump is bad, the electronic pump is definitely sending fuel to the filter..

so no leaks and fuel is definitely getting to the engine...

any suggestions ???
