replaced coil, fuel pump/filter, fuel relay...idles great, takes off good, at 35mph starts bucking as if running out of gas...let off gas an is fine..can go 30 with easy fuel acceleration. give it lots of gas sitting in driveway and no problem. seems to have a problem under a load though.

check plugs, wires. also, check the cat converter back pressure. it may be partially clogged

I had the same issue. It is the fuel control box(valve) under the right side of the dash board. It is approx 3" by 3" and it runs about 80 bucks. My truck would the exact same thing before I googled the issue. And the good part is it is only two wires to deal with! Hope this fixes your problem. And you gas mileage will increase a ton too! :)
