on the way home it start bogging bad and could
barley touch the gas without killing it. Couldn't even
do the speed limit.   Stopped at    O'Reillys on the
way home thinking it was the cap but I tried it in the
parking lot and it wasn't.  Not sure what it is and I
need help bad!  Any help is good. Not looking to
blow a lot of money on it either

Hey there! If you haven't already, check the fuel pressure to the engine - it could be a clogged fuel filter that starving the engine for gas. I was traveling in July when my truck started bogging down going up the Ozark Mountains - I thought it was bc I was hauling a fully loaded truck and pickup camper. Ended up throwing 3 rods thru the oil pan, and had to spend over a week in a motel getting my engine and fuel filter/lines replaced. If your lines are all rusted out like mine were, you may have to find replacement ones online ( check out LinesToGo.com, they were a little over $300 shipped overnight). Good luck with your truck!
