Check your coilpacks and the associated wireing,  could be breaking down....

You could also do with getting some live data from the sensors through the OBD as well as any codes.
What is it - misfire, lack of power/vibration? Gear shifts ok? How is it doing for gas mileage? any other symptoms?
As Pete said, coil pack wiring (unbolt the cover with the Ford logo on the top of the engine to see the coilpacks/wiring)
You might find something like this, damaged wiring to the coilpacks which would give misfires and lack of power, commone fault on the DOHC Scorpios:
