Of late and on occasion only when the motor was cold, if I jumped on the throttle the engine stalls. Yesterday I ran WOT for about 10 miles (20 minutes or so in my rig) then throttled back to investigate some fishy commotion. When done I went to jump on the throttle again and the engine stalled out. I was able to keep it running as long as I stayed below 3K rpm, over 3k and she'd die. I ran at 2800-3000 for 5 minutes or so and then all was well again. We stopped to fish making drifts for a couple hours and all was well. Started to run home and the 3K stall happens again. Run slow for 5-10 minutes and ease up on the throttle and good to go again.

Where do I start to troubleshoot?

I guess I would start with the fuel filter, possibly swelling while at rest. empty it into a jar and look for contamination.
