Sounds like it went into 'limp home' mode. You may have no bad problem, but you'll need to throw some diagnostics at it.

Limp home is an engine protection mode, with seriously reduced timing, reduced throttle travel and other stuff designed to not blow your motor when some sensor is reporting a out-of-bounds measurement.
