Question Help!!!!!!!!!

I thought I had a bad fuel tank valve but it is not bad. I blew air through all fuel, and return lines, replaced the fuel lift pump,and the glass bead check valve and everything checked out ok on my 1985 F350 6.9L. It sill wont run when you give it any pedal. I had the injector pump rebuilt about a year ago and replaced the lift pump at that time also. I checked the injector pump and it seems to be working ok. All it will do is idle as long as I dont step on the pedal when I do it starts to blow alot of white smoke and dies.

Anyone got any ideas.

Sounds like it's getting air. Have you disconnected the water separator on the the firewall yet?
