Fords of that era tended to develop problems with the EGR system by posts we get here. EGR vacuum modulator as I recall . DPFE sensor. Suggest to have that part checked by a shop. You could also use forum search feature to see what other’s have posted, link upper right this page.

Hold on to your Fiesta, Ford isn’t making them anymore.
