Engine Power Seems to be Restricted

I have recently purchased a 1993 E150 with a 5.0. Needless to say I got a real great deal on it because it wasn't running very good. Here is where I could please use some assistance. It has no power what so ever. It starts great but when accelerating it doesn't, just bogs down. It won't pull itself more than maybe a 2mph roll. I have tried a new cap and rotor. Checked all the pulgs and wires. Replaced the air filter which was extremely dirty. I have checked the oil and it is not over full. I am getting exhaust out of the tail pipe so I don't believe that it is the converter, plus it has this problem from the very start cold or hot. The engine does not smoke hardly at all. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

Welcome to FTE!

Check with your model year forum for truck specific problems and with the 5.0L engine forum for help with the engine. This could be brakes, computer, or even transmission related.
