What the heck is wrong with my F-150?

I've got a 2000 Ford F-150.

About a week ago, it suddenly developed a 'stumble'. I can't tell if its a misfire or a vacuum issue or what. Air filter is clean. I ran the tank nearly empty and filled it with premium and a can of Sea Foam (Thinking it might be water in the fuel). Doesn't seem to have helped.

Until yesterday, I didn't have an engine light, but heading up hill it started bucking like crazy and I got a blinking service light. I took it right to an auto parts store to use their code reader, but it comes up with nothing. WTF? How can the engine light come on, and not have stored codes? Do I need some special code reader from Ford?

Truck is drivable, and sometimes it goes away completely.

Damn frustrating.
