03 6.0 died

We have a 2003 6.0 F-250 at work. the other day it died while driving, just like you shut off the key. tried to start it and all it would do is turn over. the dealer said they could not find any thing wrong it did not throw any codes. my question is will a diesel vapor lock? it was around 90 degrees when this happened

It is more likely HPOP related problem with no DTC, dies on the road, crank over but no start....
