Default Running Rough

I have a 96 with 2.3 engine. Its running rough after I drive about a mile. Idles ok most of the time. At low speed it runs ok too. It seems the worst when I get up to 35-40 mph. Then it sounds like its sucking air and loses power. I replaced fuel filter, fuel pressure regulator, pcv, and air filter, with no luck. Any opinions are appreciated. Thanks...
