what do you think
i have a 2000f350 v10 with 105000 miles . today when coming home it dont seem like it wants to go over 55 . no warning lights . i seems fine to about 35 hit the gas and it has power . after 50 very little response , it almost will shut dow if you hit the gas . if you accelerate slow it seems to gain a little . no vibration or strangw sounds . its like its held in a gear .any ideas ?

Check your air filter and see if the center came out and is blocking the air inlet at the back side of the filter housing.

Like others said, change your fuel filter and look for water in the fuel. It is a good cheap place to start.

If it is the fuel make the gas station pay the repair. I had a problem with Quik Trip fuel last year and they paid maybe your station will if your a regular. Good luck.
