06 4.0 starts, runs fine then dies out

Hi- I’ve got an 06 ranger with the 4.0.
For the past month or so this truck has been sitting due to this issue, haven’t had much time to take a look at it.
just yesterday I replaced the intake manifold gaskets, PCV valve, and the PCV valve elbows.
When you start the truck, it’ll run fine for a few seconds, then start to sputter and eventually die. Giving it throttle only chokes it out even more.

No check engine codes, fuel pressure is good.
Any ideas? Thanks

Welcome to the forum

Reads like its "running out of gas"

Fuel pressure is good?
So it stays above 50psi even as engine stalls?

Dirty Fuel filter can cause your symptom.
