If your engine runs OK while under power, then the fuel pump, fuel filter are probably OK. NO catalytic converter on your MH. Also fuel tank venting issues will normally occur while under power. The misfiring at idle could be, as already suggested, the EGR valve. Ford uses metal on metal, seat and valve, in the fuel pressure regulator and it rarely fails.
