Not sure how bad it's running rough, but anyone think to do the wiggle test on the under the valve cover wiring harness connector? IIRC, that and a couple other years around that time, had a defective connector on that harness.

With a loss of power! A very slow acceleration to 45 mph max….before this truck ran with power until I got on it 50% throttle or more then it would throw an engine light. If I would let off fast enough misfire would go away. If I didn’t misfire would stay on until I turn the truck off & back on something I’ve been chasing but now I’m stuck in misfire!?!? Note : also before I changed & checked the fuel filter & bowl it used to be clean now it’s all dirty cleaned it out & filled bowl with seafoam to clean the injectors but nothing changed also pretty sure the screen came off in the tank after the driveshaft bearing hit the tank a few times when it broke on me so I’m sucking trash but I ran a line to another tank & still the same thing and also fuel bowl fills up quickly with no problems but I got more settlement at the bottom of the bowl after cleaning it..Someone please help what should I do?
It ended up being a dropped exhaust valve according to the diesel mechanic my father in law brought it to. Engine out repair to the tune of like 5 or 6 thousand dollars. Runs like a top now though so I'm told.
