Question Clogged exhaust like Benz

Well today my 84 300D started doing something that reminded me of olden days when my catalytic converter stopped up on my pickup truck...I line about 5 miles from my mother-in-laws house. Was going there for Christmas early supper tonight...Got about half way there, speed started dropping, no matter how far down I went on the pedal. I pulled over, got out checked under hood didn't see anything wrong...Got back in, went a little ways started doing same thing....Finally got to my in-laws doing 20 mph at best.....We ate supper, left got about halfway home again, same thing started happening....When I left in-laws car ran fine, had plenty of power, etc....No problems at all....I'm running a mix of dino diesel, kerosene and filtered wvo.....If my filter was getting clogged why would it be ok for a few miles after having the car cut shut off for a while???? Any ideas on what might cause this???? Never seen a diesel do this before.....
