FGC25K Running rough under load

Serial #AF82D02452. Starts and idles good. When driving, if you ease into the throttle it seems to be ok but if you hit it hard (like most operators do) it sputters and bogs down and sometimes dies. Has even backfired a couple of times. No service recently outside of the normal fluid and filter changes. Any ideas?
Thanks

I adjusted the throttle position sensor and it seems to be working fine for now. I'll keep driving it and see how it acts.
