Re: Escape/ lack of power.
Tune up. Install descent plugs (platinums work fine with the duratec). I test drove an '08 XLT Fwd and it had no power. I found out that it makes its 200hp around 6000rpm and torque at 4750rpm. I would imagine with the slightly smaller 2002 model and the added weight of the 4x4 it would have similar performance numbers.
I know with dodge transmissions, getting one flushed would be putting it in line for a rebuild! Depending on your mileage and the way you drive it on a regular basis the torque converter might be on its way out. If it gets worse get it in for a diagnostic/tranny check.
