Answer It makes it hard not knowing the mileage and the service history.I would look into the tune-up aspect as there may be many miles and it is 8 years old.Check/change your air/fuel filters and all the rubber hoses checked for cracks and hardness.No oil leaks and a clean throttle plate assuming the plugs and coils are fine.
