Question

Answer
Scott,

If yours has a carburetor check the power valve.  It looks like a brass tube in the carburetor and it electronic so there are a couple of small wires that come out of it.  These are known to fail.  If yours is fuel injected check the EGR valve to make sure it is not sticking open after the vehicle gets to operating temperature.  But, my bet is the power valve sticking and is in need of replacement.
