Normal idle, wants to shut off when given full throttle acceleration. It bogs down at about half throttle, then you let off the gas, it returns to normal to high idle. It feels like it's out of gas or the timing is off. It will not grab the RPMs; it bogs down when passing half throttle. It ran perfectly then I had some electrical work done on the lights, afterwards, the engine does not respond to full throttle. This is a one-cylinder XY6000, 4x4.

Did you upload an image? I don't see it. Yep, you hit it on the money with the lack of fuel, I would replace the fuel filter first which is under the truck near the fuel tank. Also, it could be fuel contamination. This guide can help you as well:
