Well it stalls when driving to the point that it turns off hesitate to turn back on and when u give it gas. I have replace almost everything except the EGR changed the TPS and the IACV. The air flow master changed the fuel filter the plugs, wiring, the hole disturbing system and still no fix.

It sounds like the fuel pump is bad. I need you to check fuel pump pressure.

Here is a how to. Let me know what you find:

If you need a gauge, most parts stores will lend or rent them.

Let me know.

No engine light no code took it Ford and couldn't find anything gave it a body throttle cleaning but no luck. Let me go back to say that I had the head gasket replaced due to white smoke and from there it began check compression good. I can't remember what else.

Seems something to do with EGR may consider replacement. If lift up on diaphram at idle does engine kill?
