Default My '99 4.0 ranger starts and shuts off immediately.

Hi guys first i want to thank you for all the help that i can get i have a 1999 ranger 4.0 v6 2wheel drive with manual transmission, today i drove to my dads house 5 minute away, when it was time to go back home i start the truck put it in reverse and i was able to move it back a little than it shut off. I try to start the truck again it shuts off immediately, i try it a few times and it kept doing the same. I know i have a leak on my valve cover gaskets do you guys think that might be the problem? I just bought the truck and the old man that sold it to me told me that he actually had to replace the spark plugs almost every 3 to 4 months because they were getting oil and it after a while the truck had problems to start. Does that sound like something that it could happen? You guys think that might be the problem? Please i need help i need to get my truck fix asap. Thank you for all the help in advance.

Can you give it gas and get it to rev? Is your theft light flashing fast? Do you have fuel pressure?
