One day truck started shutting off while I was driving(from stop). NOW it will Idle and rev beautifully, and will go in all gears smoothly and move. BUT when I give it gas in any gear it will turn off. Truck starts up no fail every time as well. I'm student and need my daily.

How long since a tune-up? Use a gage and check fuel pressure. Any applicable mil codes?

O.K. So I tried something and it least now it drives. But it doesn't nearly have the same power. Is there any effects that the replaced ACS( Air control Sensor) could have caused while it was down? I also replaced and EGR solenoid. My truck was tuned up in June but sat since about August.
BOTTOM LINE. What I replaced seemed to work. And was cheap. BUT is there any possibility of anything else messed up. Cant afford anything major (already sacrificing my Starbucks to have paid for the parts I did already)
THNX for any help.
