It sounds like you may have a vacuum line off or broken. Pumping the gas pedal on a car with EFI (electronic fuel injection) does nothing more than confuse the computer. There is no accelerator pump, like those used in carburators. It's also possible that you have crossed plug wires but, that is doubtful because you said it did run fine for a short time. I guess I would also check the fuel pressure.
Check for an air leak in the fuel system. It sounds like the son-in -law did good work but missed an air leak somewhere. The system is not providing enough fuel to the engine. The other possibility is that you are pulling a vacuum on the fuel tank. They have to be vented either through the cap or through the canister. First take the fuel cap off and see if the truck will run. If it does put the fuel cap back on and pull the hose off the canister and try to run the truck. If it runs it was the canister.
