The engine behaves like it has a very extreme rev limiter in place. If I press in the clutch it dies. From there I can restart the engine like nothing happened. The AFM was replaced June of last year. O2 sensor around the same time. Coolant temp sensor in July of last year. Cleaned and tested the auxiliary air valve last month. New throttle body gasket last month. New fuel filters last month. New fuel tank two weeks ago. This problem feels electrical to me. Fuel starvation should cause poor running like a lean condition.
