Is my problem the ECM?

1989 2.8 RS. T5.

Car was having some problems.. idling issues and stumbling like it lost a bit of power while driving. Pulled codes 33, 34 and 54. Cleared 33 and 34 by adjusting the TPS and getting a reman Borg Warner MAF. Car still hesitates while accelerating in second and third. Sometimes jerky. After doing some research I've heard that the code 54 might be related to my ECM acting up? I don't have much knowledge in regards to ECM's or proms or any of that stuff so any help is appreciated!!

You may be experiencing fuel delivery issues. On that ECM code 54 is most likely a fuel pump relay malfunction. So the voltage to the fuel pump may be marginal.
