Hi:
It could be a fuel pressure issue. Here is a how to video for checking pressure. You may want to watch it and give it a try. Many parts stores will rent the gauge to you, or you can purchase on if you go to the test equipment store site in this page.

Also, check for vacuum leaks and make sure the catylatic converter doesn't seem to be plugging.
