HELP! IT AINT RUNNIN RIGHT!

OK, IT'S A 96 F250 7.5LTR 4X4 XLT. A COUPLE WEEKS AGO I CHANGED FUEL PUMPS OUT AS WELL AS THE FUEL FILTER. I WAS HAVIN TROUBLE WITH THE PUMPS OVER HEATING AND PRESSURE DROPPIN AFTER IT RUN FOR A 1/2 HR. SO NOW THAT APPEARS TO BE GOOD BUT WHEN I DRIVE IF I TAKE OFF VERY SLOWLY IT SHIFTS AND SEEMS TO RUN GREAT BUT GIVE IT SOME PEDDLE AND SHE SEEMS TO FLOOD OUT, BOGGS DOWN AND HESITATES KINDA BUCKIN IT WILL EVENTUALLY SMOOTH OUT AND IF YOU BACK OFF THE THROTTLE A LITTLE SHE WILL SMOOTH OUT FASTER. BASICALLY SHE IS A PIG JUST DOESN'T HAVE ANY GUTS SHE HAS THE E40D TRANNY AND I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT A PROGRAMMER IS WHAT I NEED, THAT MAY BE SO BUT I ALSO THINK THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE WRONG IN THERE. DIRTY INJECTORS, BAD TRANNY, CLOGGED CAT? ANY ADVICE WILL BE APPRECIATED, THANX FELLAS!

First thing to do when troubleshooting a computer-controlled vehicle is ask the computer what it thinks is going on.

IOW pull the codes.

Heh.

It's a bra, it's what I had to put on when it was my turn to lose at a game we played at a birthday party.
