Angry rough idle

Today I started my truck after just a few seconds started running really rough and cel came on. It has done this before but normally I shut it off and turn back on again and it is fine. today it did it everytime so truck is sitting. I tried taking my programmer out and same thing. I have replaced cps, could that be it again. please get back to me.

checked all the basics of course? fuel filter? oil level? does it rev up when you hit the accelerator or does it sputter?

have not really checked anything would just like to get it to my farm so I have somewhere to work on it. The programmer I had in there has a code reader showed po472 but thats because I have my epb valve unhooked and the other po603 internal ctrl mod kam error, don't really know i suppose it could be many things. my truck is a 95 f250 with 220000 on it i have done injector o rings and cps. that is about it. havent had to stick much money in it. never have had issues with fuel filter that caused it to act up. I will check oil and try the accelerater to see how it reacts in the morning.

scanner does not communicate with anything plus would a dirty fuel filter throw a cel.

My '94 Powerstroke was idling pretty rough when I got it...but it seems better now...I replaced the oil and filter-also the nut fell off that holds the solenoid on the IPR...you might want to check that...
