Sounds very much like what just happened to me. I was driving along and all of a sudden I had no power and couldnt accelerate. I replaced my cps and now all seems fine.

Lumberman, the cps is the cam position sensor. It basically controls the camshaft timing. Standing in front of your truck the sensor is on the face of the engine at about 10 o'clock right behind the fan. You can only get to it by laying on the ground and looking up. Its held in by one 10 mm bolt and the is a wire connector going into it. I got mine at an international dealership yesterday for about 85 bucks and took me less than 30 minutes to install it. You can check for a dealer through this webstie:
