Work and life got busy and haven’t had enough time to get back to it. I will check the filter first. I tend to go for the complicated stuff. Good suggestion and thanks for the help. I will repost when/if I find something.

Air filters have to be very,very dirty to affect driveability, but as I found out, a birds nest in the air intake ‘snorkel’ will.
