How long since a tune-up? Any applicable codes? With that spider fuel system, I suspect that first. Use a gage and check fuel pressure, key on engine off. The fuel poppets may need to be cleaned, there is a shop procedure for that cleaning. I don't know if injector cleaner in the gas tank will help or not? Sometimes it does.
