runs like hell
2000 Exc.7.3L
Started home from work yesterday and rough running. Would not excellerate just bogged down when I stepped on the pedal. It seemed to be misfiring on the left side (drivers side). So I took the valve cover off to inspect the UVC wireing. It didn't seem to be faulty, I unpluged all the connectors and inspected and reinstalled everything. When I attempted to start it ran like it was firing all wrong (barely would run) worst than before. Could the CPS possibly be bad ? Or did I miss something under the valve cover ?

is there a check engine light? if so then i would assume there is an electrical problem with injectors. a cps will cause a cutting out condition or a no runner most of the time. but if there is a CEL i would get it scanned that will tell you where to start.

I wouldn't discount the cam sensor....there are a wealth of "abnormal" running conditions threads that have been cured by the CMP.
It sounds like the IDM might have gone out, assuming you didn't miss a burned harness. Did you remove the valvecovers? The harness from the UVC connector to the injectors can short out too.
