What make and model? Usually I would disconnect the fuel line to the carb and have a helper crank the engine as I hold the fuel line in a jar to catch fuel. No fuel = bad fuel pump or leak in line between tank and pump sucking in air.
Camshaft position sensor. It needs to know which cylinder is needing fuel, so it can fire the injectors at the correct time. It must have failed you. It should not be too difficult to replace or very expensive.
This truck is fuel injected, the problem sounds like a weak fuelpump, it runs when you pour gas into it until that gas runs out, the first thing is to test the fuel preasure, if the pump is weak it may run with gas poured into it but wont idle, also a common problem is the coolant temp sensor and the ground wires to thermostat housing bolt but i wont bet its the pump inside the fuel tank, if you put a fuel gauge on it there should be at least 55-61 psi if its a few pounds lower it can cause problems, you have everything else and it runs with gas poured so its a fuel problem check the preasure, theres a valve up top on the fuel line to connect a fuel gauge to it, start there hope this is helpful.
you need to replace the coolant temperature sensor. It tells the computer that your car needs a high idle. As far as your running, you got some water displaced in your system. Change out the fuel filter, and pour a can of "Seafoam" in the tank. It will take a few miles, but that should fix your problem.
