I'm not sure what I might know that three experienced mechanics would not. The usual suspects include failing ignition coils (which can also fry the engine computer if not replaced promptly) and carbon build-up in the intake, on the back of the valves (common with direct-injected engines), or in the engine.

Have you searched the Taurus SHO forums? If not, try fordtaurus.net
