possibly fuel pump fault .. check for correct fuel pressure and add a good fuel cleaner to the fuel tank to clean the lines and injectors !!

Have you checked the gas recirculation valve or the pre ignition switch?

Send me you Vin (vechicle identification number...or chassis number ...or even better the engine number) and i will be able to help you
