truck started shaking and I would loose gas pedal
but rpm gauge would go up

We flushed gas tank but it's still doing it not as bad autoparts store pulled codes said fuel sensor going all over

This doesn't make sense, " loose gas pedal but rpm gauge would go up" is a indication of the transmission slipping. Although it does sound like you had a problem with water or something in the gas tank. I would put a product with Isopropyl in it to dissipate any water that may be in the gas tank and just try to run it, unless the transmission is slipping.
