V10 threw fault code
I got a check eng light and read the codes. Cam sensor, misfire 5 & 8. Replaced cam sensor. Got light twice more. Cam sensor. Cleared codes, now no light but, I lost bottom & mid range HP at a steady decline. Run like a scalded dog on top end. Replaced fuel filter on frame rail & air filter. No cure. Noticed dash dim when headlights turned on. Pulled pos battery cable engine died. Replaced alt old one tested good. Drove to parking spot no power damn near couldn't pull it self. Turned off wouldn't start. Before I turned off it would rev up perfect just no power to move. Had a camed up sound at an idle like a slight miss. No fault codes present. Ford claims crank sensor. Haven't replaced that yet. Have fuel in fuel rails. 10 coils could not have lost spark at once. Any ideas other than crank sensor?

From my understanding of a fuel injection system: Without fuel pressure the injectors will not atomize the fuel therefore you will not get fuel to the cylinders. Have to have fuel pressure to "push" the fuel through the injectors. A light amount of starting fluid might help as it is atomized already, but no matter how much fuel you dump down the throttle body it will not supply the necessary pressure.
