Hi Joe.... try a good inj cleaner and a new fuel filter....use a good air intake cleaner in the air intake while running....check to see if the cat converter may be plugging up...if you can install a scan tool and see if it pops up any codes...look at O2 readings and see if they are within spec....these are just some suggestions...hope they help
