I have one of those 1988 1/2 ton Chevys.It might be a fuel filter which is in the line back by the tank.It might be the fuel pump,but you would think if it started it would be pumping.Mine would only run at an idle when the pump went bad.It would go when it was cold but after maybe a mile it would die when you pushed on the gas.Put a new pump on it and fixed it.They usually run when the filter is full of stuff but if its real full it might not run long. Mine wouldnt start one day and it was a rotor that had a hole burned in it and the distributor cap was in bad shape. Maybe look for wires that are unplugged or something.For a computer controlled vehicle its not real complicated like some are,but still can be a problem.I have taken mine to O'Riellys and got them to put a code reader on it after I got it running and sometimes it might tell you if you have some electronic problem with it.So far I always was able to get mine running but not always real good.There is a knock sensor maybe in one of the freeze plug holes by the starter that I had to replace one day ,but dont remember why.
I had a Ford car that would start and die and it was a catalytic converter was plugged so bad that it wouldnt run.
