SOURCE: my truck loses power

In most cases it is the fuel filter. I don't know when it was changed before, but it should be changed at least every 8-10 k miles. Make sure you change the air filter too.

Have you performed a tune up? If not, it's time for one. spark plugs, wires, distributor cap and rotor.

Replace spark plug wires and plugs. Sometimes old wires will arc to the engine block, causing missfire. Check the wires at night with lights off and engine running, if they're bad, you'll defenitely see them arcing to the engine. if they are...replace.

Truck acceleration problem, sluggish take off, loss of power, drinking gas

The first thing you do when the check engine light comes on is take it to an auto parts store and have the computer scanned for codes.
Then decide if the codes are something you want to tackle or have a shop fix it.
When the check engine light comes on the computer goes into limp mode and uses pre-set values for the sensors which makes performance drop.

1995 silverado 5.7 driving down road suts down. will not restart later will. have replaced fuel pump twice

I would advise diagnosing this problem when its in this no-start condition. I would not overlook ignition problems and the loss of spark as modules can break down and stop working once heated up,then work again once cooled off. Key on engine off will run the fuel pump for 3 seconds and you can hear the fuel pump running.I generally get concerned if it sounds abnormal like louder and whining which means the pump is failing.Bottom line this engine needs air/fuel/spark to run so check for these items while in the no start condition...good luck
