not saying it is your problem but the intake gaskets are a common failed part , in theory as the car warms up the metal expands causing a unmetered air source the ecm tries to compensate but goes into fail safe . so this is how to check for intake leak 1. use a piece of card board about the size of the valve cover and hold it between the valve cover and the top of the fuel rail this for your protection dont want to hit spark plug wires .get a can of carb cleaner and spray at intake runners if engine starts to die down than the intake is not sealed
