misfire/stutter under load

06 250 5.4 40k on it, usually when cold and accelerating engine will missfire and stutter and then continue accelerating.the wrench light will flash sometimes but it wont store a code. this used to be vague in occurence but has now started to be more a common occurence even when up to normal operating temps.It seems only to misfire /stutter on hard accel or towing/hauling heavy loads. The only answer i got from a mech would be to do a computer reflash,not sure why /how this would fix whats going on. Anyone have any ideas?.Thanks Joe
