SOURCE: ran out of fuel, need to bleed fuel system and
First GET A FIRE EXTINGUISHER
This can be a very tough thing to do and especially if you're by yourself.
You do not mention if the vehicle is now running? If the vehicle isn't running you will need to have a fully charged battery. With a charged battery turn the key one and open the fuel rail pressure release valve which you will allow to flow for about 4 -5 seconds with fuel. If you get some fuel mixed with air coming from the bleeder valve it is what you should get.
If you get only air with the fuel pump running then allow it to 'bleed' air until you get fuel. Once you get a fairly steady stream of fuel shut off the valve and attempt to start the vehicle. Once the vehicle starts you will want to bleed the fuel after a few minutes.
I want to have you try starter fluid CAREFULLY first as most smaller vehicles will recover from running out of fuel without having to bleed the air out. They will many times resolve the problem from just running about 20 minutes or so. Please consult your handbook before attempting this.
AGAIN - It is BEST to have two people just in case of fire. A GOOD fire extinguisher is best.
Best of it - hope you get it running quick.

Check all turbo hoses first for splits etc. It's best to remove each one for a thorough inspection. If they are all ok you need to locate the small rubber hose that goes to the top of the injection pump. Check it. It's probably split somewhere. this ups the fueling when on boost. If its not intact you will have very little power.

SOURCE: Ford F250 turbo diesel cut out and died as left
if you have the 6.0 then the filters are located on top on the motor right beside your oil filter and under the drivers side on the fuel pump, check to see if you have diesel in your bowl where the fuel filter is, no diesel in there your fuel pump might be dead, check fuses to fuel pump and check relay on the passengers side kicker panel, check your owners manual

What exactly is the problem????? If you are just worried about restarted the truck due to your recent debacle, simply replace the wet air filter, top off the coolant reservoir to the proper level and give 'er a go.
