Please help

Hey y’all I own a 96 f250 with the 7.3 when I start it, it lopes and it doesn’t matter if it’s in park or neutral if it sits more than a week it looses all fuel prime and if it at 1800 to 2000 rpm it has a mist/ shake I’ve replaced fuel bowl and pump

Sounds like injector orings. How does the fuel filter look? Have you checked fuel pressure at idle?

two fuel lines off the frame near steering pump have couplers and orings that can leak

No check engine light I changed the fuel pump fuel filter and bowl because it would idle “okay” after I got the lope to stop. But once I would drive it up and down the driveway it would act like no fuel and if it sits more than two days it looses fuel prime and I just want to say thank you to y’all this is my first diesel and I think I bit off more than I could chew

OK, but does it have any codes stored? Not all codes turn on the check engine light.
