Gutless in drive, normal power in reverse
Recently my truck has become very gutless in drive. Going up hills (even smaller hills at low speeds) is ridiculous. Going from a stop light is embarrassing as well. I can floor it and it will just barely roll away. Once i get up to speed it does just fine. Responds well when i give it gas. However, in reverse it is normal, no struggle to start out. Any help on what it is? Recently I've been turning the OD off and it performs better, but still not normal.

I'm hoping it's not a transmission problem, I'm a broke college student spending all my money on tuition.

Forgot to mention:
Dropped the pan and changed the fluid about a month ago and it seemed normal. No bad smell and it looked great.
Also it doesn't constantly do it. Usually get a break from it for a day or two a week.
I've had the check engine light on fire awhile now because of an evap leak. Today I pulled the codes to see if something else was in there and I was shocked. Is this relatable to my problem? Googling it it says that it can cause what I'm seeing. How can I fix it?

I think that was all that was in there. Might have missed one

There's no way all of my injectors could fail at once, right? At least not very likely I wouldn't think. But that would explain the misfires.
I've googled it and it says probably the injectors or harness. I just have a hard time believing that all of the injectors would go out at once

I thought it could be gas as well at first. I've filled up 3 times though and made sure to buy at 3 different stations. Other thought would be fuel filter.
I've also been smelling an odd smell when the truck is running.
No sea foam in the tank. Changed and gapped plugs about 6ish months ago. Have the new plug wires but haven't had the time to change them yet.
