04 6.0L Cranks but wont start
Im coming from Powerstroke.org - theres a lot of good info Ive found searching through this site, so I figured I would try my luck over here as well
Truck:
04 6.0L with AFE Stage II, MBRP 4" w/ Cat Delete, ATS Tuner, ATS Torque Converter, Banks Technicooler, and Ispro Gauges. 85K miles mostly running Amsoil Synthetics, and usually the ford diesel additive. The truck sat for about a year while I was overseas - and it was "driven around the block every couple weeks."
Situation:
About a month ago, I started the truck and noticed it took about 2 seconds longer than usual to start. I drove to the grocery store, the truck ran fine (good power, smooth idle), but when I came out of the grocery store it would turn over, but not start. I knew the batteries were about kicked, so I replaced them (out of town, no code reader with me). Still nothing, so I had it towed to a Ford Dealership... Still trying to track down the receipt, but I believe they replaced the ICP (about $500 part), and labor, and they told me all codes were cleared and the truck started/ ran fine. I noticed it took about a second longer to crank than i remembered, but it cranked, so it was good for the time.
Month later (and about 2K miles towing a car hauler across the US) and Im back to not starting. Code reader shows P0404 and P1335 (EGR Open/Malfunction) and P0603 (Programmer). I found the TSB for EGR replacement consistent with the first two codes, but it describes a lack of power/ surge rather than innability to start.
My thoughts/ other facts:
Ill usually run the synthetic for about 7K miles (its close to its next change) - could this be causing an issue with the injectors?
Fuel filters were replaced and Injectors cleaned at about 70K miles, Dealer Service
Any help is appreciated.

There was no smoke at all.
So, I ate it and towed it to the dealer:
They replaced the:
-Camshaft Positioning Sensor ($50)
-EGR Valve (Asy. Modulator CX 2056 $350)
I tried to get the EGR Valve for $100 deductible (TSB regarding 6.0 EGR Valves), but no dice.
Its time to get something that data streams...
