TPS or ignition?

'95 f-250 351 4x4
I am looking for some thoughts on this before I start spendingn money on parts to try to track down the problem. I've been having this problem for a while. At low throttle (1/4) I have normal accelleration but when I get into the gas it starts to stumble over itself. It's not quite a miss but it definately isn't running as it should. Then when I let off the throttle it evens out.

Ford Fuel Injection On the list on the left in this link if you click on TPS it will tell you how to test it. From the list on the right if you click on self test it will tell you how to check for any trouble codes. Might be worth doing before throwing parts at it.
I would also be inclined to change the fuel filter (if not already) and check the fuel pressure.
Hopefully more opinions will follow.
