Had a similar problem with mine last year, pulling away & accelerating, power would just drop off,
then once revs had managed to pick up, it would take off.
Turned out to be the injector pump.

Brand new pump is £1,000. I got a second hand one for £125 & it cost me about £115 to have it fitted.
Worth trying the filters first though if they haven't been changed for a while.

You running it on diesel Will?
A lot of Scorpios are still running on their original fuel filters 
Is the turbo working ok? any smoke?
