Do you ever need to fill the coolant (even just a little)? Get some brake cleaner and spray it all around the intake with the engine running. If the engine sputters or changes RPM, you probably have a failing intake gasket.
Check to see if the throttle body opens smoothly by hand. Sometimes the butterfly valve shaft wears out and causes the tb to stick.
