Bad spark plug, spark plug wire, ignition coil, fuel injector, low compression, or a burned valve. Start with new spark plugs. You can try switching two injectors to see if the problem goes to a different cylinder. A compression test will show if compression is low on one cylinder. A cylinder leakage test will identify the reason for low compression.
