Fires then stalls

dragon660

My 89 dodge dakota 3.9l v-6 will run for a few seconds then stall. After trying for a few minutes to get it started, if I let it set for ten minutes it will start and run fine. The only recent work done is the rear u-joint was placed, however it was fine before the change.. had low fuel when it was changed but don't see how this could effect it. New battery, so not the problem, you can hear the fuel pump engage. Diesels a bit on start, but once it's going it runs like it always has. Any ideas??
