If the check engine light is on, have the computer scanned to determine if there are trouble codes are present. Most parts stores will do it for free. Also, check to make sure the catalytic converter isn't plugging. It could be a few different sensors, but the truth is, without the check engine light coming on, it becomes a guessing game.
