could be either of the two things... fuel or electrical.

Check the plug wires making sure they are not arcing, check the plugs for proper gap and always use MOTORCRAFT PLUGS.

Fuel filter replace and check for proper fuel pressure on the injector rail. I am not sur of the lb require, but you might want to check to make sure..

I avoid TRS at all costs.
