Hi, well this could be many things.
first check fuel pressure
then check cap rotor and pick up
next check convertor for restrictions.
you don,t mention a check engine light. if it is on scan for codes. sounds like a fuel pump or filter prob but these things have to be checked to verify this. good luck billymac
