    Could be worn out plugs and leads, air filter could be very clogged, throttlebody could do with a clean.

    Try taking off the throttlebody and the upper part of the intake plenum, give them a good clean, also replace the air filter if it is visibly filthy. That shouldn't cost too much to do and may see some improvement.

    Mega service time

    - Spark Plugs
    - Leads
    - Engine Flush & Oil
    - Oil Filter
    - Air Filter

    - Check/Replace vac hoses
    * Back of the plenum to fuel reg
    * Bottom of the throttlebody to the manifold. (if it's never been changed its almost definitely cracked)

    - Fuel Filter
    - Clean Injectors (probably best to replace them or get them tested)
