Also try wiggling the wires going to cam sensor (it's on the drivers side behind power-steering pump). I have seen a rash of them going bad lately. If it will start by moving that wire around then try and keep moving it and see if it will die again. If it will then you need a new wire harness.

I had a 7.3 one time that did simular things, but also started hard sometimes. Turns out the Eot pigtail was having issues. It would loose connection and the Eot input went to like -140 deg and a split sec later it would read the norm. What the temp sensors close with live data and see if you see a jump.

The only accurate factory gauges are the speedometer and the door ajar light. The temp gauge will read normal between 170 and 220. Oil pressure just means you have more than 7 psi. If you have a smartphone get the torque app and a bluetooth obd2 adapter.
