help with a weard problem

new to fourm, so hello all,
i just got a 89na GTUs 5speed 59,000mi. a few mo. ago with this weard problem.
it starts fine, drive's grate, but after 15 min. or so of drive'n after warm up it freak's out. were ever your holding the gas pedal at when it freak's out it wont go any faster. you can let off the gas and give it gas up to were you were holding it when it freaked. if you give it more gas then that it sounds like it's bogging. but... if you take the key and turn it off and back on every thing is fine agen for about another 15 min. i have changed the tps on it and have the same problem. i fixed up the two test led's to setup the tps and after warm up try'n to set it, it dont seem to set right. i get it set come back latter to check it and it's off.
help me before i get angry with it and burn this thing to the ground!

I'd welcome you but I'm disgusted by your poor spelling.

Hey man, check your in-tank fuel filter first, especially if you just started premixing. 59K at that age, she's been sitting a LONG time...

thank guy's...yeah all new plugs and wire's and filters. did all that first thing when i got it. car run's good just that funky problem.
car was hit on the drivers fender and the hood was bent up, it sat in a barn for a year or so. a good frend found it and fixed it. he had a old rx mechanic frend check it out and get it running. he said omp was bad. my frend drove it for a while. he owed me, so i got the rx for payment.
the in-tank fuel filter is one thing i have'n checked.
i did check all the ground's.
after read'n the post i found, i'm think'n the ecu and omp both are fried.
