Re: TRUCK STARTED OUT MISSING GOT TO WHERE IT WOULDNT...
Check your timing if you have a distributor. loosen it up, and turn it different ways to try and adjust, if that doesn't help, have your timing checked. your belt may have slipped a tooth.

Could be a dirty egr valve exhaust gas recerlater. I had a problem where my car wouldn't start or stay running unless I had gas pedal mashed to floor and it was that problem
You may get some popping with a leaking exhaust but not common. Sounds like you're in need of a tune up. Spark plugs and new wires to start. The flames are due to unburnt fuel from mostly a miss fire. Try a simple tune up first, also make sure you have a new air filter to help the motor breathe easier and save money at the pumps. Be sure to check and replace any old/cracked vacuum lines as this will cause poor performance too. Hope this helps start you in the right direction.
First try the fuel thing shoot a little starting fluid in the throttle body or gasoline see if it will run .. if not your right you got fuel pump problems .. thanks Jerry holler if you need more.
This is really one of them that you can spend hundreds and still miss the problem. This is the order that things need to be checked. Start cheap first. But before anything, hook a fuel gauge to the fuel rail and let it run but keep and eye on the pressure. Any eratic movements of the gauge would put the blame on the fuel pump of filter. And have the timing checked. with high miles will need new timing belt. It wouldnt hurt to have a compression test done too. Also is there exhaust coming from the tail pipe adiquitly if not then your catalytic converter is stoped up or about to.
This list does not mean go buy all that. Its just check points for now.
1 air cleaner 2 fuel filter 3 PCV valve 4 throttle sensor. 5 crank and cam sensors 6 MASS airflow sensor 7 spark plug and wires.
sorry for the long to do list but like i said this is one of them probs that could be many things.
