Did the check engine light come on? this sounds like a driveability problem that would trigger it
no check engine light checked fuel pressure and that was good
It shows no codes anymore than 1/4 throttle it will die. If u let off throttle it goes back to idling fine.
How does the Air Filter look? Have you replaced the fuel filter recently?

fuel filter looks good just changed fuel filter yesterday. It also goes in reverse just fine. I also pumped all the gas in tank and replaced with 5 gallons of new fuel. I did this cuz I noticed a little water in gas I siphoned out. what problem would not show codes or check engine checked spark plugs all good. totally stumped!!
