Default 2004 f350 diesel need feedback asap

my truck stalled yesterday and rolled to a stop. I tried restarting it but it just cranks over and over no start. i just had the fuel pump replaced and it's been a bit slow to warm up. but running pretty well other than that. The dealer says maybe an oil pressure issue and I just had it in there a couple weeks ago for a whole month and a half because their mechanic doesn't know jack about powerstrokes please help

hey thanks, turns out the sending unit that I got from the junk yard and had the dealer install for me was reading wrong and at a quarter tank it was actually empty. filled it up and it starts. however when it starts it seems weak and then speeds up to a normal idle. why is that
