Question Powerstroke Stalling

My father in-law has a 2001 Superduty with a powerstroke, today he went to go to town and it stalled he got it started and it died again he then went and changed the fuel filter and now it starts for a minute and dies, he has a superchip programmer and it only shows the PO603 code..

Anyone got any idea's or suggestions on diagnosing this ?????

CPS, at least try removing and reseating it if you don't have a replacement. That goes for electrical connector too.

Believe it or not this could have been my very first post. Exact same symptoms, exact same reactions from me. I not only replaced the fuel filter once, but twice. Then decided to post here and of course got the CPS suggestions. Replaced that, and paid the stealership prices cuz I was stuck in a campground in South Carolina. CPS did not solve the problem. So had it towed to the stealership, now we are talking about getting expensive here. Anyway, the Superchip was the problem, stealership removed it, set the computer back to original, now much poorer and a little wiser I drove away. Superchip replaced the bad one for almost nothing and it has been fine ever since. But the truck was no fun to drive during the week or 10 days I was without my Superchip. Then to make matters worse I just tossed the original CPS so I still do not have the very much required spare in the glove box.
