How to tune up, or service engine?

Details: Goodwrench 350, 10 years old, 70K miles, Starts right up no problems there. Edelbrock Manifold, Rochester 4 barrel.




My trucks service engine light has been on a while, and I would like to know what all I need to do to get it to go off? I'd also like to know a good guide on tuning up my 350, I replaced all the fluids already, plug wires as well, and flushed the radiator, whats next? my truck seems kind of sluggish, it even hesitates sometimes when I push the gas off a stop, it almost stalls, in fact a few times it has and I would like to get it running a lot better, what would you recommend? [Fuel filter it clean, and Dist cap and rotor are fairly new] Thanks. EDIT- Heard that the EGR could be my problem, how do I determine if its gone bad?

PS, I had another problem today, I got on the freeway on a low tank of gas, started going up hill, and it died on me, I guess the fuel was low enough that the pump was not able to get any fuel on a count of I was going up hill, how can I aid this problem?
