Hey ya'll

My cousin has an 03. 6.0 , he said the other day it was slow to start , he changed both battires because it turned over slow and one battire showed to be bad . (truck started great )The next slow start he changed both fuel filters ,(truck started great ) Now it will not start at all! (cam sensor or crank sensor ?) or do ya'll have other ideas ? can you test the sensors or is it a hit and miss thing
thanks for any help

I believe the CPS is a problem confined to the 7.3's...

Has he ran any codes? Without codes we may be just throwing parts at it.
