If you still have the standard Ford air filter system, look for some sort of air leak in the intake system, not exactly a vacuum leak but before the throttle body. Thinking air sucking someplace.

You haven't listed the age so take a look at the PCV system since the vacuum line will crack after time. It runs behind the intake manifold.
