First off, welcome to FTE! 
What year is the truck?
My first guess is a bad CPS. You can replace that pretty easy and cheap.
Is the check engine light on? If yes, got a way to pull that code?
So now it won't start, but how did it get there? Running perfect then zilch?

In addition to what Pirschwagon and the others have suggested, a "No Start Flow Chart" is available in the 7.3L PSD Tech Folder as well as a lot of other good information. I have included a link directly to the No Start Flow Chart for your quick and easy viewing below.
