I had this problem and it ended up being chaffed wires in the wiring harness along the right manifold. Mechanic sealed the wires and the harness back up and it fixed it about four months ago. Just the last week, it came back and I'm dealing with the same issue again, except now it is every week or so. My fuse #17 was blown too, which is for the throttle control. Put "reduced engine power" in the search above and you'll get alot of other info that people had with similar problems, thats what I did. Good Luck!
