Did You Check Your Fuel Pressure Regulator?
Pull the vac hose off and see if you have raw fuel, If so its toast. Otherwise get a gauge and check your pressure. You might also want to clean/replace your Idle air control vlv/mtr, It could be carboned up.
Good luck
PS I also have a 92 F150 302

Also check to make sure that the EGR valve isn't opening too far or not closing completely
