you could take everything out and run a carb..

turn your key on/off on/off then finally on to get an error code

if it seems to stumble & at the same time the ameter needle moves like on my 360 I disconected the Coolent Temp Sensor switch (on the map circut NOT to be confused with the cooltant temp gauge drove it for about 3 weeks, at a slightlly higher idle & then reconectet the switch & low & beghold it rans nice & smooth causing me to believe that it was likely the PCM/PCU as might be in your case which is the computer onboard, these tend to need replacing every 200K miles or so so you're right on that

Being old and so many miles it could be a bad ground on the truck !! Canada and harsh nasty winters be my guess

I hade a similar problem w/ a 99 dodge mini van. I, after spending a lot of money on mechanics changed out the egr valve and that solved my problems, I noticed your was disconnected,I would reconect it first and go from their.

i have a ford ranger the same way. i did replace the mase air flow censor and it works now. oh yeah the 318 WILL bolt right up.

if the cat was pluged up it would run hot

take your cat covertor and the c02 sensor off .maybe pluged cat.covertor
your electronic fuel pump wires run down the fire wall and down to the frame then towards the tank at rear. Sometimes tend to pinch in between the cab and the frame if the cab mounts are worn or rust bad, this has caused a truck to act in close to the same manner you are explaining.causes a short i the electrical components .
