This issue is typically caused by a broken or jammed EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve). To remedy the problem, you must remove the old EGR valve and replace it. Attached is an Article from AutoZone on how to determine if it is the EGR valve and how to replace the EGR on a Generation 3 (1996-1999) Ford Taurus, It will also determine if your problem lays in other EGR components.
