The first thing to have checked is the IAC, (Idle Air Control).. It is connected to the throttle body and controls the amount of air to the engine at idle (throttle closed) .. They get stuck and don't allow enough air to get to the intake.. The part is easy to change and I think costs about $60. Most anyone who works on Fords can change one in 15 minutes.. good luck...
it's the idle air control valve (IAC) It's failry inexpensive and easy to replace. 1 plug and 2 8mm bolts.
