Strange Startup Problem S70

The condition doesn't always occur but the last time it happened:

- the engine ran rough like it was missing on one cylinder
- idle dropped to about 500 - 600
- I drove about 1000 yards and it was like the throttle was disconnected. RPM would only go up to about 1200 even though the pedal was pushed to the floor. The engine didn't miss or backfire like it was getting to much gas during this time.
- car would only travel about 5 miles per hour on flat ground.

If the condition happens again what troubleshooting checks do you recommend?

Thanks,
Tod
