Fuel filter is location under car? my car will die out if fuel pedal is pushed to hard. starts right back up but does not like to be excellerated fast.

Maybe a loose wire. Check motor mounts to make sure engine does not move excessively under load.

I think that this is fuel pressure related, it could be any number of issues.

Can be caused by many things but i would start by checking fuel filter and fuel pressure

Sounds like you have some injector problems or the fuel pressure regulator. If the check engine light is not on, I would look for something allowing extra fuel into the engine.

could just be sucking way way too much air... check air filter and all the pipes if any to the air filter... make sure no cracks or loose joints in the pipes make sure filter is good and also that rubber seal is goon on the air filter..... thats what i would look at first... if nothing results from this please reply and ill help as much as i can cheers

Yes, there is a Fuel Pump Relay. The Relay is located on the firewall just above the left-hand (even cyclinders) valve cover as viewed from the front of the car. There is also fuel pump test lead attached to the harness at the fuel pump relay. Attach a power wire from the battery to the lead and the fuel pump should come on. If fuel pump comes on, the relay could be bad. Also check the fuel filter located under the passenger side of the truck tucked into the frame rail.

It is located in the fuel/ gas tank.

Check Fuel Pump

This vehicle from personal experience definitely has a problem with the MAIN relay that's located under the dash are right above the brake pedal. Its a brown box with a plug in it. I believe that's the problem its less than 100 dollars from the dealer its control the spark and the fuel on this car. Good Luck. Contact if you need more help. Thanks for using FIX YA
