Explain "losing power" Does it drop into limp? In other words do you lose idle control (idles about 450) and does the gas pedal feel unresponsive until about 1/2 depressed? If so, thats limp home. If you pull can codes, odds are one of 3 things are bad.

1) EA
2) E-gas
3) switch on pedal, unplugged, DOA or corroded connector.


There are tests for all of these, find someone who knows the system locally and let them fix it. These are high dollar parts and tossing peices at it is not the way to go.

BTW, the passenger side v/c vent runs to the EA and the hose is 3 pieces.
