OS:
How many miles on the D, and what kind of shape is the battery in? You may have a fuel pump on the way out, or a failing battery. Have the battery load tested to rule it out.If it comes back less than 100%, replace it. How long have you owned it, and what history as in tune ups, etc do you know?

Dittoes Don Fox, if you're sure it's a fuel issue (or you have water in the fuel tank). They DO act funky with a battery that isn't 100%.
I would check for codes first.
If no codes, I'd pull the fuel line to the injector rail, put it in a container, switch ignition to "run" for about ten seconds, and inspect the container for water in the bottom of the gas. If no gas, or very little, yeah --- Fuel pump, or pick-up filter.
