Just bought this truck listed above (power stroke) a few days ago, ran fine, got me an hour and a half home. Then it shut off on the highway next day, wouldn't turn back over. It cranks, so don't think it's the starter. Fuel bowl is filled but doesn't overflow when cranking without the top on. Need this baby running by Monday, any advice welcome Thank you.

It sounds like the fuel system needs to be serviced and we should run the codes. Here is a guide to help and I have included how to service the fuel system in the images below:

Also, you should check all fuses this guide can help you:

I would also swap out eh PCM and IDM power relays if the fuses are all good.

Check out the images (below). Let us know what happens and please upload pictures or videos of the problem so we can see what's going on.
