Check the Codes...

What is the fuel pressure...

Have you checked the timing?

Could very well be the injectors. Look down in the throat of the throttle body to check the injector spray pattern. There should be a fine cone of atomized fuel at the base of each injector that reaches the sides of the throttle body with no gaps or streams. Low ambient light and a flashlight helps to show off the fuel cones easier.

Ok I forgot both of yr replies it has recomended pressure from fuel pump and at the throttle body. I have replaced bOth injectors. Checking codes it gives injector circuit code but can't find injector circuit in book or on truck.

Have you checked the spray pattern on the replacement injectors? I have seen injectors not spray properly right out of the box. A problem with the injector circuit may also effect the spray pattern.

Do you see any extra "dripping" from the injectors?

What was the fuel pressure at both key on\engine off and at idle?

What codes are you getting?...did you by chance clear the codes to see if the same code returned?

Have you checked the timing?
