ok I'm back so to speak

reason for my absence simply put is the 90 has been sitting un drivable for hell I think 2+ years now the story behind it is I played hell for over a year to get a title for it and it's a damn salvage title at that seems the drunk before me totaled the front end of the truck it's still got a bent frame brace and radiator core support but thats trivial crap. ANY way so basicly due to lack of $$$$ to throw at the truck and lack of knowing whats wrong with it it's just sat there. I've replaced both sensors on the egr but last time I pulled codes was still getting the codes for insufficient flow yadda yadda yadda yadda truck has ZERO power for a excellent compression block 300 Straight 6 btw at idle backing up the driveway it'd just die and when it started to die and I pumped the gas it'd grunt and rev up and down and then moved slowly......At this point I'm suspicious of the fuel pump and no I can't switch to the other tank cause I removed it. and based on the appearance of that front pump I'm thinking thats the issue cause on the road it kicks and bucks and spits like it's running outta gas and struggles to hit even moderate speeds of 45mph any way I'm back cause I'm gonna try again with getting it back on the road hate seeing it just sit.......for those that don't know it's a 1990 F150 Extended cab xlt lariat with 300 EFI E4OD and 3.08:1 open differential rear axle anyway I'm Back lol

Welcome back!

Your truck sounds like it is challenging. But, once you sort it out you will have a real work of art you can be proud of.

yeah the old truck was beaten into the ground by previous owners it used to be a fleet truck apparently the last guy (the drunk) was a plumber and used the old guy as his personal brothel but it's got potential cause all 6 are burning evenly no oil on the threads nothing so the block it'self is in really good shape
