Default Problems with 5.0

My 5.0 is having problems idling and has has lost its power. It has to be high reved just to get it to start out and still has no power is any gear. Any suggestions? throttle response sensor or egr valve?

Welcome to the site the EGR and the TPS would cause those symptoms. If you find out one of them is bad PM me and I can see if we have them for you.
