Dude, I know more about this motor than I ever cared to now lol. Actually, i had ordered a new ecm but due to your comment about the ecu, I decided not to open or install it until the last resort so I could return it! So thankful for that. I will have a video to post after our trip. I did take a...
Update: SOLVED!!!!!
I had thoroughly went through the intake manifold, but failed to go through the actual intake housing. Damn mice somehow got in there and built a nest cutting off air flow. Just got back from the lake and it ran like a singer sewing machine. Thank you all for the time...
Spot on. I will pull the pickup out after work today and inspect it again as well as the filters. The line from the tank to the engine is new and replaced
When I tested the fuel pressure the first time, it was with a borrowed gauge so it could very well have been off. I bought a new one which is what the latest test was from that gave me a reading of 37-38 psi. What in the actual hell could cause low fuel pressure if it's not the fuel lines...

I'll be able to check fuel pressure again tomorrow. As for prop, it is a 15.5 x 15 pitch. Fuel pressure regulator is new as well as the fuel rail screen. I have came to terms with this cluster fu$% that it just won't be running right for vacation. It will still go and we will still use it to...
Okay. I called and had a buddy go by the house and take the prop off and put it in a tub. He said he was able to hit 6k in gear without any hiccups or hesitation. What does that tell me it is or is not? Does this mean the ecm/ecu is good? Maybe a pinhole in a new hose? Would a little bitty teany...
