1999 v10

My 1999 F250 V10 has started to lose power off and on. It will run fine then when I stop at a light or sign, then when I take off it runs like I pulling something heavy. If I stop again it goes back to normal sometimes. 161000 miles. No check engine light is on. Motor idles perfect and sounds great. I don't know anything about motors, looking for ideas please

Maybe clean the MAF sensor, change the fuel filter and try some Seafoam or Berryman's B12 in the tank.

It very well could be a clogged fuel filter based on those symptoms.
Other items include the well know pcv vacuum leak, an intermittent cop, or a possible spark plug issue.

Sounds like a spark plug/COP issue. Could be as simple as a corroded spring on the COP, or a loose spark plug.
