Sounds like a covert request for an escort service. Good luck.

Took my 7.3 to Power Stroke Enginuities in north Houston. Price seemed fair and did good work. Not too far from the Woodlands.

Most any mechanic can handle that pump replacement. It is pretty easy. It is located on the frame under the drivers seat. It is where one of the two fuel filters is located.
So the greatest civilization is one where all citizens are equally armed and can only be persuaded, never forced. It removes force from the equation... and that's why carrying a gun is a civilized act.

Powerstroke Enginuities is your answer.

Thanks for the help. Damn thing went out on Hardy TR on my way to airport. $200 tow to my home and $20 Uber made my flight. The 6.4 obviously has bad reputation compared to my old 7.3 but without the suffocation equipment it has run great. I was able to research it on my trip and I pray it's the LPFP because it is an easy job. All signs pointing that way. I get home this morning after a red eye…Can't wait to tackle the job

UPDATE!!!
Christian Bros wanted $1300 if its just a LPFP job,,,, Dealer wants $2000. Gullo Ford wanted $800 for LPFuel Pump, Autozone sold a Motorcraft LPFP for $340. So I bought pump from AZ. "borrowed" the fuel line disconnect tools from AZ, and tackled the job yesterday. The access was tough with front drive shaft but the pump is on the frame rail below driver's seat. 3 nuts, 2 canon plugs, and 4 fuel lines to remove took 30 minutes. Installed new pump in 20 minutes. The old pump had garbage in it...possibly the pump **** itself or trash from tank. primed the system to remove air with 15 cycles of the ignition to ON. that's about 3 minutes of pump operation. Lots of air bubbles viewed in the clear hose on the Amazon fuel bleed kit for $30. but finally solid stream of fuel. Then it took 2 cranks and ran but very rough...Then I see a lot of white smoke out the exhaust then a couple minutes later an engine knock. I drove it and the engine light came on with wrench symbol. ***** It also wouldn't come out of Low Power Mode so I limped it back home after adding 7 gallons of diesel to tank. I check the codes. ONLY cylinder 5 misfire code. No fuel pressure codes. So after some deliberation, I started it again. Started right up, and ran beautifully--no codes. So the low power mode and wrench was from the misfire probably caused by air in the fuel line at the #5 injector. Turning truck off & restart recycles the truck out of low power mode. Obviously the smoke was unburnt fuel poured into #5. Glad I tackled it myself.
