   I have a zetec-s and when i am driving it it sounds like the exhaust is blowing and the engine feels like its almost wanting to cut out.
   
   what could this be?

   It could be the exhaust blowing or maybe the coil pack mate, i would say the coil pack as my mate had a similar sounding problem on his and it turned out to be that. Does it feel like it might stall??
