Does your Ram have the lift pump under the hood? Sounds just like mine did when the pump was going south. Rough idle, if it stalled it would take 10 to 15 minuets to start. New Air Dog 100 solved all my pump problems. Any good diesel shop can test the fuel pressure in about five minutes.
Good luck sorry to hear your stuck.

'97 would still be a 12v with a mechanical fuel pump on under the filter. The return line between the P7100 injection pump and engine is the usual suspect when losing prime. Replacing both to and return at that age is good insurance.
