if you look on the side of the battery at the bottom there is a plastic wedge that holds the battery from moving which is normally held in with a 5/16 or 8mm bolt
I don't think there is such a thing as a "diesel battery". Perhaps you mean the batteries used in diesel cars; the batteries usually used in cars are lead-acid batteries, the acid being sulphuric acid.

being a super duty i assume this is a diesel engine. diesel trucks have 2 batteries. did you check both batteries. then check all fuses if it is a diesel engine there will be 2 batteries .did you check both batteries
It was built with two batteries, yes.
They were powered by diesel engines and batteries. The batteries were for underwater use and the diesels propelled the sub and charged the batteries while running on the surface.

because diesel are very high compresion, it takes alot more cranking power for a diesel that a gas motor
Check on the battery closest to the engine. There should be a bar that has 2 bolts in it. One on either side. If I believe right, I think it takes a 1/2 inch wrench. Maybe smaller. It depends on the year.
Modern submarines are powered by a nuclear reactor. Others are powered by diesel engines while they are on the surface and batteries while they are submerged. The older ones that were powered by diesel and batteries had their limitations. While they were on the surface running on diesel engines they left a trail of exhaust smoke which gave away their position. When they were submerged and running on batteries they could only last so long and then they had to come to the surface, run the diesel engines and recharge the batteries. The submarines that are run by nuclear power do not have to resurface for a very, very long time.
