Definitely check your compression.

Tps, or the switch in the throttle lever?
Maybe a bad injector, loading up... Or just an electrical fault somewhere? I don't know, frustrating.

Do your head light dim flicker or take some time to come on.if so it could be your voltage regulator there is a recall on them.

Theres a recall on them? I had to order one yesterday, if they had a recall on it, they should be replacing it for free.

There was a recall on the 2010 not 09. And nope. Headlights and everything is fine. I'm thinking fuel filter or the throttle switch. Cause it seems to have a lot of play in it.
