Tin nut

I’m new to diesel’s, I purchased a 2003 F-350 with a 7.3. I ran into the store was only in for about 15 min came out truck wouldn’t start. It would turn over and all gages seem to be working. The guy I bought the truck from said check the “Tin Nut” I looked for it couldn’t find it. After 1/2hr of looking I pulled the wire connector off the water Temp sensor and put it back on the truck started. I don’t know if it was from doing that or just a coincidence. Any way can someone show me a picture of what the Tin Nut looks like and where its found on the truck?
I would really appreciate any help. Thank you

The tin nut is the nut that hold the IPR solenoid in place. So look at the back of the HPOP to the bottom and between the HPOP and the fuel filter.
