Have you checked the voltage in the FICM? http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/30...ch-folder.html

Since it starts fine on another tune, I would suggest contacting Matt and see what he thinks before chasing after ghosts. Have you loaded the stock tune to try? If so and it starts fine, then I would say that the tune you got from Matt likely requires a little tweaking.

I had the opposite happen........

What elevation are you at? High elevation? Reason I ask is that I had Elite tunes and my truck would start then die, start then die, etc. About 4 times a morning. When I got Gearhead tunes I never had an issue with that again. I swapped tunes several times and it definitely follows the tune. Only thought I had was that Elites tunes are written at 4k plus elevation.
