A few questions...
The 4 times it happened:
did it always run ok at lower RPM until you reached above 1400?
And to be clear:
it stumbles and then dies rather than shuts down suddenly (like turning off the ignition) right?
Do you know how old your exhaust system is?

Hi Jerry...
I could run it to 2000 rpm and still ran smooth... it was when the engine temp reached 160 then it sputtered and died like it was struggling... I have discovered that all my spark plugs were loose. Like turn them out by hand loose.
I feel so incredulously stupid for trusting the previous owners work... I know better next time to always perform a double check before leaving the dock... especially since I had my family on board.
