Interesting problem.

I have a 97 F250 that I just got. It runs great all 100% stock, but now the battery light comes on and when I step on the accelerator pedal the battery light goes out. as soon as I let up it comes back on. It also flickers off and on.

Check the connector / wiring on the alternator for an intermittent open.
