#1 of 1 2001 crysler town and country fuel issue by bcolpablo

I have a 2001 town and country that decided it wanted to die on me pulling out on the highway today. After checking the spark plugs to make sure I got spark (working fine), I decided to take off the air intake hose. It seems to be getting plenty of air, so that only leaves fuel. Due to the engine being so hot I could not mess with the fuel lines, but I could not smell fumes from the air intake upon trying to start it. I then got the great ideal of feeding it fuel through the air intake hose like an old truck I had with a carb. After a few squirts of injector cleaner and a few moments of turning it over, IT STARTED!!! I stayed running the whole way home (about 10 mins.) However, the moment I cut it off I tried to cut it back on and it did the same thing again..
 
My thought is, if it were the fuel pump it would have been pumping after starting it with the injector cleaner, if it were an air issue it would have just started with the air hose disconnected.. So Im clueless and need help... PLEASE HELP?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?
