it's the tinted windows it causes a heat exchange between the glass and your intake runner which cause your air fuel ratio to be off.............................
okay now really it sounds exatly like your fuel pump. first replace the fuel filter if that doesn't do it then i would replace the fuel pump. it is a very very very common problem in new cougars.

I agree with Cougar4life......definitely check the fuel filter. Check with Neco forums because there is a post about how to get to your fuel pump without dropping the tank. Also, dont replace your pump with a stock one.....upgrade!
