Post it over in the powerstroke section lol. I'd say cam position sensor is bad. My old one done that it's about 50 bucks an takes 20 to 30 mins to put on

Maybe if you would take the time to learn how to read, then post this in the correct forum, the 7.3powerstroke forum, then maybe you will get some help, so dont go bashing none of us because we didnt help you when its your own fault, asking some of us about a PSD is like asking a caveman about a cell phone

Being an all electronic controlled motor You would be better dealing with such issues by getting a scanner. Just plug it in to the test port and it tells you what codes are up. Then replace the sensers that have failed and your on your way but... Most here wont know much about an all electric motor. All we need to strat is around 9 volts to the fuel shutoff valve and a push start. Then we can run forever....
