I changed the fuel pump, it ran rough, so I replaced the sensor with the original, no change, a mechanic sprayed around the manifold gasket looking for bubble, non found but he said this was the problem, he said he could hear a change in the engine when he sprayed the brake cleaner aroudn the gasket, I didnt hear anything, the truck ran perfectly before the fuel pump change, my way of thinking is somehting to do with the fuel pump?

Why did you change pump? old one fail? may have introduced some debris into fuel system hampering injector operation.
