Do you have a blown head gasket? Just a guess. If you do this is one of the symptoms. You may have some coolant in your oil. Check your inside the valve cover for water by looking in through the oil cap.

Engine runs very poor when it gets hot

it has a sensor problem or a blocked air filter ?' if its a sensor then its most likely to be the one on the other side of the throttle linkage

After driving for an hour or to at 60 mph on the highway the car starts sputtering and jerking and losing power, then eventually shuts down. After 10 minutes it starts up and runs fine for about 40 minutes...

Sounds like a fuel pump to me. Some focus' have an extended warranty on them from Ford due to so many problems. Fuelumps won't always set trouble codes.
