Thanks Mark. I'm going to check the fuel filters next. It's strange that it sounds just fine, no rough running then stops. The engine is pretty much brand new, so at least I know its not the compression. I will check the fuel and air.

Mark,

Older diesel engines need three things to keep on running:

1.  Fuel
2.  Air
3.  Compression

The overwhelming majority of the time an issue like you describe will be fuelling related.  Have you checked and changed all of the fuel filters?  That is where I would start
