Truck was parked for 4 years and not driven. The plugs, wires, fuel pump,fuel filter and vacuum lines have all been changed. Everything seems fine until I reach about 55 mph and then it just looses power and will not accelerate anymore, It does not matter if I put the petal to the floor or leave it where it was, there is no change and speed will slowly go lower and lower until I have to gear down and try again. Please help, I am a single mom and I cant afford changing much more and it not help the problem.
