Default 99 SC400 won't rev past 5k rpms "vid"

car been sitting for almost 2 weeks, decided to take it for a spin since it was such a beautiful day today. drives normal like it usually does but when i WOT it feels like there's fuel cut at 5k rpms. it'll do that at a stand still as well.

Could be a bad fuel pump.

ended up being a loose coil plug connection. everything's running good again.
