low grade misfire

I have a 04 Screw w/ about 95000 kms (60000 miles...on the 5.4L) and I am getting a strange miss/shudder. I seems to only happen when I am going downhill at about 110km/h @ 1800 rpm ish in cruise control. (obviously in OD) At first I thought I had gone over a big frost heave, but it happened again and the last trip. It accelerated just fine and if I keep my foot lightly on the gas it appears to go away. I did read a thread in the tranny section about the low grade misfire and replacing egr valve, COPS and plugs.... what I do not know is if it is more transmission or engine related..as it does "feel" like it is coming out of the rear end. Any ideas?

the 5.4 will get a good shutter in OD with a bad COP. when i had my 99 superduty, i thought i had a big problem since i had never felt it before, but it just turned out to be the #4 cop.
