Default 96 accord lx sluggish acceleration up to 60mph & rough idle

my gf's 96 lx auto with 162,000 miles, has a sluggish acceleration up to 60 mph for the past couple of months, even flooring it doesnt help, and somewhat of a rough idle
everything is fine with the engine no leaks, new oem exhaust last year, no CEL, everything stock, what can i do to improve it??
