You didn't say but presumably the engine uses a DPA type or distributor type injection pump.

In this case the injector line pressure is governed by the condition and setting of each injector. If the break-off pressure of an injector is set to 80 atmospheres that pump element will produce a pressure of 80 atmospheres.

If one injector becomes "soft" and worn so the break-off pressure has fallen to 20 atmospheres for instance, or if the injector sticks open, the pressure generated by the pump will be either 20 atmospheres or virtually nothing.

When a conventional diesel engine develops a misfire, best practice is to ensure valve clearances and suchlike are in order, the compression pressure is good and then independently test the injector (and heater plug).

If everything is in order the pump should be removed for testing, repair and recalibration.

My toyota 3L D4D HILUX turbo is making a high pitch noise, i also do not have enough power like i use to have. added a bottle of injector cleaner in my tank of gas and cleaned that sensor on airfilter

the high pitch noise and lack of power indicates air escaping under a turbo hose or a crack in the intercooler
possibly also that the boost dump valve is not operating correctly

2.4 L 22R-E I4
3.0 L 3VZ-E V6
2.4 L 2L diesel I4
2.8 L 3L diesel I4

some countries ran carbs then.
which engine,
is it fuel injected , EFI? (-E is EF)

now the Generic answer.
1: low compression on all or 1 cylinders.
2: bad spark or timed wrong, (gas engines)
3: wrong fuel rates, (too much or too little)
too much is misfire, too little is bog.
on diesel too much is black cloud.
too little bogs.
there is a simple test for each, path.

Dodge cummins won't start, fuel reaching injector pump but no fuel coming out of injector pump.

You said you have fuel flowing from the inlet line of the injection pump? But not at the injector lines?
