'99 4.6 Eng problems

Hi I'm new here but I didn't see this problem anywhere else. Along with lots of little electrical glitches and leaks that seem so common now, I now have a power problem as well. The car starts and idles fine, and accelerates without problem. But when I try to drive up a hill in OD, the eng feels like it starts to miss between 2100-2200 rpm. If I let the car slow a little, it will run fine until it gets back up to 2100-2200, then it will start to sputter again. If I press the gas enough to get it to downshift, the problem goes away. Also, this only occurs when a load is put on the engine. On level road or going down a hill within that throttle range this doesn't happen. Any ideas? Thanks.
