Sounds like you've made a good first pass at the problem. Have you pulled the codes out of the computer yet? What's the air filter look like? Automatic or manual transmission?

Also, could you be a little more specific about 'have nothing'? Does the motor stall, buck, snort, backfire, misfire, or is it just an underpowered feel -any chance of a slipping feel such as a tranny failure?

Looking at your post count - welcome to the site! There's a lot of good know-how here.

Have you tryed fuel injector cleaner, or anykind of engine restorer? That should help.

If your EGR valve is open when it's not supposed to be (as in 'stuck'), that can cause problems.
