no start.. Possible Electrical Smoke????

i have a 2000 f350 PSD with 175,000 miles

this morning i started the truck...it ran for about a minute then went into high idle like it always does.. ran for about 5 min. then died.... i tired to restart, it ran very rough for a few seconds then died..i replaced the CPS with no change... i tried to start the truck again, it ran for a very rough for a few seconds and died...only this time i saw a few small puffs of white smoke that were emitted when the truck died, i got out and saw that the smoke had come from te pass side of the engine and it smells smelled like smoke from an electrical short....

Any blown fuses? Sounds like the fuel heater may have shorted.
