Sounds like it's time to do an engine swap.
I'm not going to that much trouble; I'd sell the truck first. I've had the manifold off once, completely cleaned out the plenum, manifold & throttle body, & cleaned/inspected the injectors. I'll just have to pull it all again.

I have all the tools, knowhow & a place to work; I just need the TIME! Wondering if I should get the head/valves reworked while I have them off. I'l probably replace the timing belt & put a new oil pump on her as well. i dread starting this...
