Question Need some help

Need some help. I have a 03 F350 6.0 113,000 miles with no previous problems until after driving for a short time, I stopped at store, went to start and it wouldn't start, just crank. I finally got it started. Ran good for a couple of days then again while driving down the road it quit running and has started since. I thought it was the CPS so I replaced it and still no go.

Any suggestions????

Without knowing anything else about your truck, I'm willing to bet a cold malt beverage that it's something in your high pressure oil system OR a wiring harness issue.

I quote the HPO system also. I been in your shoes, replaced ICP sensor, IPR valve, and a new HPO pump solved my problem.
Try the ICP and the updated connector first.
Or even better, check for DTC-s.

Just some more history, like I said no previous problems tow a 35' 5th wheel. I know I was running low on fuel the first time this happened. The first time it did this I removed the cap from the secondary fuel filter to make sure I had fuel and second to see if the fuel pump was working, since I was low on fuel and if memory serves me correctly I did the same the second time it wouldn't start. after I did this it still didn't start immediately it took about 3 or 4 more trys. When it finally quit I tried everything and no go. I probably committed the mortal sin of a shot of starting fluid and did get a reaction.

And thanks for the welcome and getting me to the right place...
