‘91 e-150 acceleration issue, at my wits end.

1991 e-150 351w 5.8L..Van is my home, which is great, except there is an acceleration issue.
Issue:The problem is intermittent, 99% of time it only happens in hot weather the engine will surge in rpm, very high, and stay there until I force it down by staccato hitting the pedal, or managing to side of road and turning engine off. When this happens it feels like the pedal is “catching” and not moving freely.
First mechanic...It needs a tune up...replaced plugs, wires. Van ran better over...
