FICM or something else?

I drove my truck about 15 miles to my brother's house and shut if off. Started it back up about an hour later and it did not sound right. Motor sounded half as loud as normal and no throttle response. Turned off and let sit for a minute. Started again and same thing but then is started winding up more and more until normal sound, took about 10 to 20 secounds to idle up. I did not have a reader with me so I checked it when I got home, 250 miles later. Did not have any problems on the trip but here are the codes listed. P0261, P0264, P0267, P0270, P0273, P0276, P0279, P0282, P0611. I replaced my fuel filter 7k miles ago at 75K miles. This is the first time this has happened but I am afraid it is going to cost me big. Truck is an 04 F250PSD.

Those codes are indicative of a FICM failure.

Well either all your injectors have a short to ground, defective coil or something is bad with the FICM.

location??????

Where are you located? Check wiring, pull the plugs under the ficm and look for wires that can get pushed in to the plugs. I had this happen twice. Otherwise it sounds like ficm problems. Check voltages while cranking, and alternator output.

With all those injector codes PLUS a FICM code I'm voting FICM as well.
