honest answer take it to ford it could be the idle undershoot problem which needs an ecu update or the idle control valve or an emission pipe vss sensor youll spend a fair penny changing stuff to see if it works easier to drive it in and have it checked over it mneans paying for a diagnostic but thats cheaper than constantly replacing parts
