Well a little more info might get you some more replies, but anyways have you tried messing with the timing. It sounds like your timing could be off. Also, I think you have the throttle body injection so just make sure your getting good air and fuel.

You could have a fuel delivery problem in your Cheyenne. It is good to start by checking fuel pressure. Fuel injected cars are very fuel pressure sensitive. Fuel pressure is very important and must be within specifications. However, if the pressure is low, it does not mean the pump is bad. A plugged fuel filter, a pinched line, and low voltage at the pump can contribute to low fuel pressure. All these three must be checked before replacing the pump.
