Even a plugged up air filter will kill top end.

To test to see if that is the problem the air filter just remove the
air filter and see if that fixes the stalling. If it does just replace
the air filter. But be sure to put air filter back in after. As I am
sure you know the air filter keeps a lot of junk out of the engine.

Thank you so much guys- very very helpful and made sense even to non-
mechanic like myself. I will work through each of these suggestions
when I get some time and let you know how it goes.
