Default Power Loss

Took my truck to the shop and they turned up the injector pump and said they fixed a leak coming out of my boost gauge.
That did not fix anything ! the truck has noticeable loss of power and dogs it uphill ( 40mph max). It has the E4OD Trans and the overdrive light is not blinking but it seems like it shifts at 3000 rpm now and acts like its always in a passing gear until I let off the pedal then it shifts... something is wrong but I don't know what...it has a rebuilt trans and I took it to ford a few months ago to check it out before the warranty expired and they said all was good. it also seems like it should shift one more time but I cand be sure what gear it is in....could it be the throttle position sensor or what ?

Too much fuel and loss of burn is causing a loss velocity .. hence loss of power .
