what filter and cap are you running .have you check the black little poppet valve in the bottom of the oil filter res.when you barely touch the gas does the oil pressure gauge register.the ball on the side of the hpop could have came out.i have seen this happen and will still start and drive the truck but not let you get over 65 mph or so.i know because it happened to me in florida coming back to tn.
if everything else checks out you will have to pull turbo and look where the ball is on the pump.
