Help...no start on an '03 F-250

Hey guys I was hoping some of you could help me out. I know somebody with an '03 F-250 PSD. Last week he towed his fifth wheel a few hundred miles and while en route to his destination, the truck seemed sluggish on hills and then finally just died. After several minutes the truck started again and he made it to his destination. Next time he went to start it... nothing, he took it to the Ford dealer where he was and they could not duplicate the problem? Needless to say it's still there and he had to rent a car to get him and his family home, leaving his trailer, and truck a few hundred miles away from home. The way he described it sounded like a fuel problem to me. Either way has anybody experienced anything similar to this with the diesel? Any help would be greatly appreciated. The truck only has 33k on it.

Could be a cam sensor. I've heard this isn't real comon but it does happen.

Makes a difference on the motor in there. If it's a 7.3L I'd look to the Cam Position Sensor. Can't really help ya if it is a 6.0L
