Hi tclopez325,

A bad Throttle Position Sensor or low alternator charging rate would cause what you described as the ECM/PCM is not getting the correct voltage reading to act accordingly.

I would suggest testing the charging rate frst.

Your ECU might be in limp mode.

Any on-board lights on your dash illuminated? MIL/CEL?

If not, to reset your ECU on your car just simply disconnect the negative terminal for a minute or so and pull the ECU fuse. It may be labeled "ECM F/I".
