There are many things that will cause the ECU to reduce engine power (not necessarily limp mode). (Intake Air Temp, Water Temp, and Oil Temp are three of them.) It's very possible that you are hitting one of the others. IIRC, IAT is pretty low; somewhere around 85-90 F.

It would be nice if someone would post a list of params/values where the engine starts pulling power. IIRC, the limp mode values are in the FSM but I don't remember seeing anything on "low-power mode." If it's in the FSM, please point me to the right page(s). TIA.
