Last night I was on the way home on the freeway and all the sudden I lost acceleration and power steering went out. So my motor stopped and I get the "Check Gages" light. On the shoulder I tried starting it twice .Had it towed back home and tried some different things. I replaced fuse 26 which was burnt out

I scanned it and it had the following codes:
P1443
P0141
P0401


Today I replaced the fuel filter, and that didn't work. I checked the fuel rail too and there is pressure, but I don't have a pressure gauge to see if it's sufficient. I took one of the spark plugs out and saw it was sparking.
Any other ideas?
 
Update, the truck is back to running! Took another look at it last weekend and saw I had lined up the crankshaft gear in the wrong position, so got that, and the timing belt fixed. It seems to idle pretty high now though, probably about 1400-1500 rpm for a few seconds and back down to 1000 rpm after slowing down.
