Just thought I'd throw this out in case others might have made the same mistake.

My pickup was running poorly for a number of reasons, but I fixed nearly everything. I've been living with a miss under heavy load, but I learned to just not push it and it would run OK.

Well, today I glanced at the fuel filter that I had recently installed, and saw that I had put it in backwards. I put in a new one - the right way - and the ol' beast runs like a million bucks!

Hope this helps someone out there with similar problems.
