Default intermittent miss

Was going up the big hill into cloudcroft sunday to haul wood and started noticing an intermittent shutter felt like a miss. than once I loaded about two cords on I could feel it more. I don't notice it driving down the highway or when I'm running hard just medium throttle under a load. No codes and no other symptoms I recently closed off the waste gate but that shouldn't affect it. MY guess is VP dying and it's had a small drip off it for awhile just haven't had time or money to fix. Any ideas?

fuel pressure is good never drops below 15 and I haven't changed the filters in a year and a half or so
