new issue i came across

my truck has only done this once or twice before, now yesterday my truck was bucking and stalling, and hardly wouldnt go, my grandpa suggested its my electrical system, it acts like it is super sluggish in first, and my truck in neutral will skip and hope and almost if not cut off. anyone have any advise as to what i should start eliminating as the problem? thanks

Year, moter, tranny, what you/it was doing when problems started, are useful information to those you are trying to get to help you.

Think Gpa might be on to something but I'm guessing more like a sensor like TPS. But could be vacuum line, short, bad plug wires or rotor. To name a few guesses with limited information you gave.

Could be your ignitor/coil, TPS, loose connector on any number of things, bad fuel and so on. I'd start by making sure you have spark, then test your TPS. Are there any conditions that it happens under? Only after idling for a while? Only under power? Cruising speed?

x2 on the fuel filter.. and you said all new hoses so i would double check that all hoses are hooked up correct.. just one hose off can let moisture get in the intake.. i doubt it would cause it to stall but you never can tell
