A new fuel pressure regulator solved a lot of my problems. I took the truck for a 10 mile test drive. The truck accelerated okay without any issues. I also switched fuel tanks several times. The truck did backfire once after switching tanks, but that was the only problem I had. Thanks, Charlie, for the help.

Remind me, do you still have the big holley 4bbl, or are you into EFI in 89?

Pretty sure you have the holley

The wonderful ethanol has a habit of eating power valves in Holleys......
Those are an easy fix

Backfire on sudden throttle is usually a power valve
