Trouble codes
Howdy all I have a 2013 f250 with a 6.2l gas burner. The truck has 106,000 miles on it I bought it in January pretty cheap due to a cel. I diagnosed a bad coil driver in the ecu causing a misfire to cylinder 2 took it to ford got an ecu put in and fixed the missfire and had no issues. In September I took a 6000 mile trip across country, during the trip codes p0430 and p0420 were thrown 2 weeks after I got back, after work the truck would not start until the third crank. Checked codes p0300 was thrown along with the 0430 and 0420, I cleared the code and it did not come back till this afternoon leaving work truck took 4 tries to start. Is there any chance that bad 02 sensors or clogged cats could cause the hard start issue ? I do not have much experience with newer gas vehicles so looking for a path to take without throwing parts at it and hoping.
thanks in advance!

Try this the next time you start the truck:
Hold the throttle open about halfway, then try and start it. Does it fire right up? If so, you have a rich condition starting. I'd check for a fuel injector bleeding down.
How's the fuel trims when running?

Thanks for the response I will check trims on the way to work tomorrow mourning. And will have to see if it has the issue tomorrow after work and I will test the half throttle at start. it never does it in the mourning. Just around 530 when I head home. Thanks again
