Need help with this 7.3

the past month or so my 1995 7.3 has been starting hard and running okish, and today I went to drive it got about 2 blocks and I had no throttle.. at all.. it idled down to about 500 I pulled over and it started shaking pretty bad. I shut it it off and tried to start it again and it just turns over and won't fire. Im thinking it's the fuel pump. But I'm not sure. Help?

Did you try switching fuel tanks? What's the level of the tank on which you were running?

How's the oil level, and how old is it?

My front tank got a hole in it so I pulled that tank and am just running the rear tank. The truxk has had an oil leak and I didn't full it for bout a month and it was about an inch up on the bottom of the dipstick after that happened.

So, Do you have enough fuel in the tank & is the C Case full or not ?
