Not too much info to go on... You have fuel and HPOP pressures, so you need injection...
Check fuse #22. Shorted fuel bowel heater will kill the engine as it supplies power to the PCM and maybe the IDM????
Bad CPS can mimic your engine symptoms.
Its probably the easiest sender to change and fairly inexpensive. Best to get from Ford or Navistar dealer. But if your stuck, get one from nearest auto-parts store. Electrically, all 7.3's the same from 1994.5 to 2003. So application year does not matter. Think the changes are limited to tin or gold contacts. (This is not the time to try CPS from different engines DT466E etc)
