hard to start, then dies after 1/8 mile and wont restart
i have a 2001 ford f-250 with a 7.3l, 314000 miles, sct tuner, 5" miter cut stacks. i was doing a cross country trip a little while ago and when i was in arizona i blew the radiator hose. which is now fixed, but since then i have not been able top get it to run right. at first it wouldnt start at all. and when it did if i didnt keep momentum up or if i had to stop it would die then wouldnt restart. I checked codes and got 1211 and 1212. i then replaced the fuel injector control pressure sensor, and it still does it. i cant figure out what it is and was hopeing someone could help. we thought it was bad fuel deliery cause it acts like it isnt getting any when it dies so we replaced the fuel filter and fuel pump but it still wont runn right. please if anyone can help i would greatly appreciate it. this truck is my pride and joy and i am helpless without it.

^^^ What Chris said.
And when it is being difficult to start or has died on you, a free and easy test would be to check the oil level in the HPOP reservoir. It COULD be a problem with the HPOP, the HPOP check valves, or even the LPOP. It wouldn't be the first time an engine had multiple unrelated problems.
