Yes V10, and yes the battery had been drained due to the lP/Co monitor staying on. I'll check the hoses too. The battery has since been charged.
My '05 was having similar problems, stalling in reverse after low idling. It was related to the battery having died and the computer reacting to some sludge in the throttle body. Dealer cleaned that, and no more problem. Ford had a bulletin on the issue, so you may be able to find that. I don't know if '97 was included or not.
