It could be the FICM, but it sounds like the STC fitting may be loose.
They symptoms of a failing STC fitting are close to what you described: when warm truck will crank, but not start. When cold, the truck may restart and run normally or start normally and idle rough.
You may also check the ICP sensor located on the passenger side valve cover. Unplug the sensor, if it starts runs, and drives somewhat normally, that may be your problem.

Yup. Definitely need to check the FICM voltage per the test procedure in the tech folder at the beginning of the 6.0 forum. Also need to verify ICP and IPR values while cranking the truck. I suspect an STC fitting blowout also.

Pretty common for the symptoms you describe.
It would be great if you could use a scanner to help diagnose the issue. Did you get it scanned for codes? A lot of guys here use a ScanGauge II to monitor the motor and it also can get a lot of the codes the computer throws. The check engine light does not have to be on for a code to be stored.

just how much oil are you loosing? is it leaking on the ground or do you belive its being burnt.
so far as your no start goes. not much I can offer with knowing what ICP, IPR and ficm readings are.
