Check engine light, sluggish, back firing

do you have any strong smell coming out of the exhaust end like gun powder? if you do so possible you have either broken or blogged catalyst. The other possible fault is most common the vacuum leak.

Back fire

CHECK YOUR TIMING / PLUGS / PLUG WIRES / CAP N ROTOR / ALSO CHECK THE EXHAUST SYSTEM AS WELL BECAUSE IT MIGHT HAVE AN ISSUE WITH WITH THE OXYGEN SENSOR & AN EXHAUST PIPPING LEAK SOME WHERE ALONG IT.THERE MAY ALSO BE A BAD GROUND WIRE SOMEWHERE THAT MIGHT BE CAUSING AN ISSUE WITH IT BACK FIRING AS WELL.YOU MIGHT WANT TO CHECK THE GAS YOUR BUYING FOR IT AS WELL & ALSO USE A GAS TREATMENT THAT WILL CLEAN YOUR FUEL SYSTEM AS WELL.IF YOU STILL CAN'T GET IT RESOLVED TAKE IT TO A REPAIR SHOP TO HAVE A FULL CHECK OUT OF THE VEHICLE TO FIND THE EXACT CAUSE OF YOUR ISSUE.

Bronco II fuel injector back fires and rpm go down then back up?

You may have a failing fuel pump, the symptoms are that of low fuel pressure. The fuel pump is located inside the gas tank, the gas tank must be removed to access the pump for renewal. Remember to replace the filter and be careful not to create sparks and blow yourself up, seen it happen first hand.

I have a 1989 gmc sierra with a 350 engine. we ran out of gas. after putting gas in it it would flood and stall if we had to go uphill. we solved this by replacing the fuel injectors but not it will turn...

Are you sure that it is getting gas, you can take a gas can and pour a small amount down the throttle body (just a teaspoon or less) and see if it starts to run while turning it over. Becareful with the air cleaner off you could get a back fire (fire!) so only use a small amount of gas and have a fire extinguisher near in case you get a flame up. Could be the distributor if it is loose (as it became in my 1988) the distributor hold down fork became bent from over tightening the bolt and it would not stay in position. You will have to slowly turn it if it moved (or use a timing light) to adjust it till it will run there is a connector near the brake booster that needs to be disconnected to properly set the timing.

Jerks and shakes from time its cranked. can drive it but still jerks, doesnt want to take in gas when speeding up, some back firing when giving it gas. engine light flashes red until letting off the gas...

Sounds like a fuel injector is clogged up or is not firing due to the computer not firing it. Check by putting a noid light on each injector and checking for pulse by viewing a blinking light from it. Also, one can check to see if a stethoscope can be used to listen for a clicking from the injector indicating it's at least pulsing that way.
