Truck suddenly has no power under load. Starts fine, idles good. Plugs, coil pak and fuel filter all changed. Under load the timing swings way negative. No CEL or codes indicated

Check with key on engine off it should be 62psi it may be a bad regulator. Are you sure there are no codes? If the timing is going negative and I don't know how you can see that without a scanner, then it may be poor gas making the engine knock and it's retarding the timing. Fuel pressure at idle should be 65-71 so I'm not gonna say a pound off is bad but see what it is with engine off also check vacuum at intake at idle if 15" or below suspect a clogged converter/exhaust.
