i noticed u were here in texas.
i have a problem with my exploder...lol explorer. it has this power loss symptom when it gets hot more so than when its cold. i guess it just gets worst as it heats up. i drove from 121/183 to 35E and on my return trip it just bogged down so bad i had to get off and take service road from texan trail to home stopping a few times to let it cool off or rest which ever was what helped.
i have put a new TPS,coil pack, fuel filter, plugs & wires. i did a code scan and got a 173. can the o2 sensor really cause that?
