If I were guessing, I'd guess crank sensor.

That is one I didn't think of, should it show a DTC code for that? I don't even know were that is in the engine, now I'm really worried. Where do I go from here

It won't set a code. But verify your fuel pressure first, a bad pump won't set a code either.

I will have to wait till the fuel filter I've order from Fastlane gets here, If I knew it will make it I'll just drive to Gainsville and let you take a look at it.
