What happened???

[2.8 Bird]

Driving the '89 Firebird around in the side street and all of a sudden it bog down for no reason. It wouldn't pick speed anymore and it wanted to stall.

Drove it to a safe spot and stopped the car and turn it off. There was this like burnt smell, but can't find the origin.

Start the car back up and it was running fine again. Does anybody know what caused this?

I ask my brother to drive the car around and see if it will do it again.

It would not hurt nor would it be expensive to change it...that filter is as old as 3 years old.

Well, I'll probably replace that anyway. But I have a hunch that TPS might be the culprit. There's no SES light though.

My brother drove it today and it did it again.

I have a 2000 Camaro and I had a situation where I lost power in a dramatic way...and it would die....I diagnosed it to be the TPS....replaced it with a used one from
