Default fuel pump problems

Okay so my truck started to start rough last week like the fuel pump was going out. I looked online to make sure that my fuel pump was the problem and found a post on here about the fuel pump driver module (btw...love this site. Very helpful). So I checked my fpdm and it was corroded so I just bought a new one and replaced it. But my truck is still starting rough. Also it will sometimes kinda "rumble" or shake when I give it gas and if I let off the gas and give it gas again it will drive normal. Like I said I think its my fuel pump but I was hoping y'all could give me some help. I'm hopin there's a cheaper fix

Just got the truck a few months ago. Not sure what all was done. Was planning on givin it a tune up this weekend (oil change, air filter, etc.) Then the problem started last weekend. I'll deff check the fuel filter though. I'm just tryin to think of what all could cause my problem and I'm hopin its a cheaper fix than havin to buy a new fuel pump

Also clean the mass airflow sensor and throttle body (different cleaners BTW). These dirty can cause some funky problems. Usually rough idle but my ran better all the way around when I cleaned mine.
