My self, I would start with a basic tune up first. Cap, rotor, plugs, wires, ect.

it was tuned up beginning of season. ran great all summer. then did this 1 time the first day 2-3 second now it does it 10-12 before i can get and plane and drive it like normal. would ecm go in safe mode due to the intake gasket leak i fixed?
since it has happened i put on new upper intake gaskets
new iac
i hate to throw parts at it but not knowing any one with a scan tool its kinda all i can do? tps next? i guess another new cap and rotor cant hurt?

Figured it out! I checked and re checked everything toady. Tps ohms- great, fuel pressure- great. So i did some reading and found a thread of the same symptoms and a guy said 502 mpis with low drive fluid in there reservoir will not go over 3k rpm. Checked mine and it was low! Where did i go? that's a new issue but topped it off and it ran great! All day today!
