The 3.0 misses a whole lot and it could be the wires, plugs, coil, and who knows what. As of right now I can get in 4th OD because the dealer said it doesn't have enough power to shift into 4th. Thank god it wasn't the tranny.
good luck
This might sound dumb but?... this was jsut happening to me and i also thought it might be the coil pack going bad. Guess what the next day when i ordered the coil i gota code 216. Keep in mind i have a 95 contour and obd1 suxs. So i was like ok fine new coil problem solved. A friend told me to check the harness that comes from the coil pack and plugs into the pcm and guess what it was loose. So loose that i could jsut pull it out with no force. The clip was broken probaly during my engine upgrade thus leading me to beilve my coil pack was going bad. Check the harness unplug them all and replug them togetther. If that doesn' solve ur problem then maybe it truly is the coil pack gone south. The harness is located near the power steering pump and the fuel rail? ur'll see 3 harnesses together
good luck
