VSS. Do the turn signals and the speedometer work?

Check plug wires?
Sounds like the front cylinder plug wire may have rubbed through where it contacts the gas tank.

Codes are:
P1353 - no combustion in front cylinder
P0502 - VSS failed low
P0503 - VSS failed high

Lock nut backed off of front intake push rod. Was surprised no rattle or pre-warning. Cylinder just died under heavy acceleration.

I actually had the same issue a few weeks ago. Make sure you red lock tight those nuts.
