Take it to a shop please...

first of all, stacking chips on a powerstroke is useless because one will override the other. Secondly they don't have injection pumps...

its in a shop and the mechanic cant figure out why it dies and no codes come up. i normaly work on my dodge, but thought i would try to help him out but look for info before i look at truck. and yes i agree with stacking programers. Im just trying to help freind because the nerest dealer is almost 4 hours away. so he took truck to local shop that does not have much experience with the 7.3. and yes the truck starts then dies. i asked if cam senser was replaced and he said yes, but it should throw code id cam sensor?
