Wellnit most definately was not a crank sensor. Was headed to town to pick up some electrical stuff for my cabin. Got about 5 miles from the house(after it had ran at idle at home perfectly for a half hour) and it lost powe, misfired real bad and then quit. Coasted into a side road...after a few tries i finally got it to restart and it ran like crap for a few mins and then got better. Drove home and it did ok. Pulling in my driveway it almost wouldnt pull the hill in my drive. Got it home and am about to run a quick scan before i hop in the f250 and go get my stuff.
 
Codes are as follows:
P0306 cylinder 6 misfire
P0174 system lean bank 2
P1150 lack of ho2s21 switches fuel trim at limit
P1151 lack of ho2s21 switches sensor indicates lean
P0171 system lean bank 1
P0303 cylinder 3 misfire
 
been sitting here at home with it running, moving about in the drive and its running smooth for a while the it will stumble and misfire a few times and then go back to running good
 
Ill check on it more when i get home. I gotta run to lowes.

Great, thanks.
Can you get Fuel Trims (STFT & LTFT)?

Have you smoke tested it yet?
Mine was leaking intake plenum seals, very common on these.
Had to spend a pricey 90 bux on new plenum bolts from Ford, b/c they're 'special'.
It's not a difficult job, it's just a big job.
Gotta remove everything on the top to get the plenum off.
Took me 8 hours, mostly due to inspecting and cleaning up everything.
Plus, I put in new timing chain tensioners (Motorcraft), valve cover gaskets, spark plugs, and all the o-rings and other seals that were on the top end.
When the plenum was off, I could see the valves.
B/c I use Jectron fuel system cleaner every year, they were spotless.
There was around 90k miles on it when it needed this work.
Now there's about 150k miles on it, and it still runs good, except it needs the timing chain cassettes.
The plenum seals used were Felpro blue.
