Engine Misfire

Hey all, new to the site my 02 v10 seems to be running rough especially when I tow my camper, did the plugs and boots about 10K ago it really seems to be bad when i'm in reverse under heavy load and if I'm in OD at low RPM's. I have been reading alot of great information on here and want to look in the right spot. No lights came on and the truck didn't stall. Help

1) Get the ODBC read anyway. Sometimes the problem may be in the "Pending" codes.

2) Check your engine & transmission mounts. What you think is rough running could just be more vibration than normal being transmitted to the frame due to the driving conditions.

Getting the codes read is the first step. Had a similar situation, missing under a load in OD. It turned out to be a bad injector.
