need help leak somewhere or ignition problem!

i need help bad,

i drover my car today and the car just bogs at a certain rpm, right above idle, and it is idling high, the wierd thing is it is running stronger then ever at WOT, never felt like that before, and i can hear a hissing noise when it is "bogging" but after i get past that rpm the motor runs real strong, another thing, my fuel guage and idiot lights stopped working at the same time this problem occured (on the road out of nowhere) any help would be appreciated im tired of getting stranded on the road lol but i guess thats what us 3rd genr's have to deal with thank you guys
