No power / then died .. Please help

Ok so i noticed my truck was acting weird after a while of driving, im not even sure whats going on. When step on the gas it wont do anything, it will move with very little power " like 5mph" and then it will lose all the power and died. If i let it sit for a few minutes and crank it will start if i give a little gas but it will act the same way with no power at all then die.

2000 Ford F450 - diesel 7.3 ... ideas ?

Thanks

I'm sure you will have codes stored. Get them read so we don't have to guess on what is going on. Let us know what you get.

well no codes at all. Engine light will come on but then go off after the truck starts.
