    . Check for codes.

    . Replace the Ignition Control Module (ICM) and coil packs (3).

    I recommend replacing these problematic components every 120,000 miles or 10 years, whichever comes first.

    Sounds to me like a clogged fuel filter. You may have two on your car, so check both. They should be replaced every x amount of miles anyway. And I agree... run the codes.
