WHEN I START MY TRUCK, AND ITS COLD IT TAKES A ALOT OF CRANKING .WHEN WARM IT SEEMS TO STAT RIGHT UP.I HAVE A CODE READER.AND IT SAYS ITS MY ECM THAT NEEDS TO BE CHANGED.
OR I MIGHT BE WRONG,I JUST HAD PLUGS ,WIRES AND CAP AND ROTOR REPLACED,FUEL PUMP IS NEW AND SENDING UNIT IS NEW.IT JUST SEEM VERY SLUGGISH WHEN I PUSH THE GAS PEDAL TO GO.AT 65 IT RUN LIKE A CHAMP.

IT JUST SEEM LIKE IT ISNT GETTING THE RIGHT FUEL NAD AIR MIXTER.

ECM is located behind the glove box. Pull the door and the glove box itself and the ECM unbolts from the firewall. If it is actually the ECM you will want to keep the PROM chip in the one you have. Unless you get a replacement programmed to match your vehicle and options. Your problem sounds more like a bad connection than a bad ECM.
