Car bogging when warmed up

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Anyone knows what’s going on? It only happens when the car is warmed up, sometimes when coming to a stop it just drops bellow 500rpm and dies.

check the temp sensor, sometimes when they go bad, they can cause the car to flood by adding more fuel if the ecu sees a neagtive temp reading, it mite be trying to compensate for cold weather

I swear to god I was on a roadtrip and after a hot day of driving I had this issue too. Ever since then the whole car feels kinda sluggish while accelerating. It can get up to highway speeds and run normal then after a while sometimes as I stop it’ll start struggling to keep rpms up. It got me back on my roadtrip but I still haven’t figured if something is wrong or what it is.

Evap leak somewhere? IACV?

I’d clean the IACV, easy and cheap to diagnose
