So here is an update on issue #2. We dropped the tank and emptied it. Surprisingly enough, it was fairly clean. However, the sending unit was rusted fairly well, the sock screen were dirty, and the pickup screen was also dirty. We tightened up the fuel lines at the fuel pump, and blew the one out that goes to the tank. Installed a sending unit. Fuel bowl filter was also dirty and had rust. I am assuming from the sending unit. I replaced the filter about a year ago (7K miles). We cleaned the bowl out nicely. I dont have my gauges yet, but the truck is running better than before. I will go ahead and order a fuel pressure and EGT gauge. I now have Torque pro installed with a bluetooth scanner (havent done a search yet, but any quick fix for the vehicle turning off when scanning for codes? Tried with and without the 2000-2001 Ford box checked)

Issue #1: After cleaning the fuel system, The truck still died in that same town. I didn't have the scanner setup so I couldn't log it at the time. I have ordered a new OEM ICP sensor, but havent installed it yet. Below is my screen shot of my gauges at idle. Does everything look normal? Should I add some other gauges? I'll try to do a graph tomorrow for my commute to work.
