Engine idles ruff

Last week changed out distributor an cap an rotor. Also new plugs an wires. I have a tag under the hood saying unadjustable timing an idle, done by computer. Check with ford an tried to look online but didn't have luck. So didn't bother with timing. Two days ago was hot an didn't think to check my coolant level an she was on the edge of overheating. Got home, parked her an left about 5 hrs later... Got a mile down the road an she was accelerating slow even tho my foot was down. Code 1507 came up so I changed out the iac still hasn't changed. It feels like the engine isn't going gas somewhere or something, checked both pumps an both are running about 53ish maybe 54. I don't want to lean against the injectiors but that's what I'm feeling. Thanks for reading this all. 96 f150 176000 miles

What engine do you have?

Check your codes when you get the chance.

So, when all this started, you engine was running rough ? How rough ?

4.9L an I check the codes everytime I turn the key. The only one that keeps popping up is 1507 which is the iac. An I changed that. An when I start her she fired right up but than bogs down an seems like its not letting fuel thru. I'm thinking it might be my injectors. I think from finally getting a new pump for the front tank it ducked up dirt or something an it's in the injectors.
