Is the area you are moving the vehicle to sloping! If so then your fuel drain back valve may be stuck open

there quite common for sucking air in through the front seal on the injector pump. Will start fine when cold but just as you get down the road will start to splutter as it has sucked air in through the seal and filled up the pump with air.

Take fuel filter off and see what colour of fuel,if it black you got a problem!

All diesel should be used with fuel additive only to prevent seal shrinkage problems and injector componant wear. As aboveresealing a pump is from 800$ to 1600$
