no start???s

ok guys i was driving along and it started missing and then it died i was on a rough road when this happened... and i checked the codes and they were po340 and po344 both cps sensor and it had the usual turbo boost something but i get it all the time... and then i checked them again in it said something like po166 or something and it said below it pcm and idm communication error... ok so i have changed the cps checked all under hood fuses cheked oil level in the crank case and in the hpop and i checked to see if it was getting fuel to the fuel filter canister and set my edge programmer back to stock... not checked the fuel pressures did not figure it would crap out the quick... but any ideas are appreciated i need this truck back up and going it is my only ride...

Any smoke when you crank? WTS light on with the key? Check fuel pressure just to see what is there.

Check the HPOP reservoir. Level as well as crank case level.

Check that and get back. If that looks fine then we will go from there.

Does your Edge give any data readings (ICP, IPR %) If the HPOP level is good then you may have severe leakage in the IPR or injectors. Try unplugging the ICP sensor and crank it over to start. IS the engine still hot from running before? Could be IPR o-rings as well.
