4.6 runs rough when warm

The engine runs great untill it warms up then it starts running rough. It also doesn't have much power going up hills after the engine warms. I am suspecting the problem might be an Oxygen sensor but i think I should ask around before I start throwing parts at it the truck is a 99 and has 160 km on it. Thanks for any help.

The plugs and wires are good I did them recently and I've tried running the car with the filter out if thats what the MAF is (probly not a good idea) made no difference is there anything I'm overlooking? are there any other possible causes?
