Does it do it all the time, or just under certain conditions? Hot ,cold,etc.
Every 7.3L has it's own personality, but mine did that too. It didn't matter whether it was warmed up working hard or after a leisurely jaunt. It turned out that I had a bad motor mount on the pass side.

Make sure you post your findings.

good luck,

Austin
