Dragging a anchor
Whats Up Guys!
I have a 92' 150 w/4.9l 300 six - 4x4 e4od tran. I am not a mechanic, but get by. I just had the e4od replaced, new exhaust, replaced just about every sensor and component on the truck and it still feels like I am dragging an anchor behind it. No get up and go, and sluggish. My old 89' f250 w/the same engine and a utility bed, ran with power in its ***. I keep getting the check engine light on and occasionally dies at a stop. I am thinking a fuel problem? Maybe bad injectors? Also, I replaced the master, brakes, lines and occasionally get the abs light on and no abs. Does anyone have a clue to what I might need to do to get the power back and the mpg up. I can also smell a hint of fuel in the cab on hard acceleration, but can not find any leaks? HELP!

is it efi or carbbed? check the injectors for leaks pull codes just because. replace the fuel filter clean it with some seafoam. if your abs light comes on that might mean your abs system is cooked.
another thing i thought about is you might have different gear ratio in the back? that would slow it down some.

This may or may not have relevant material, just posting here incase it does. I have this same thing, still.
