Well theres always the 2 basics. Air and fuel. Check if your throwing any codes from the ECU. I would then trail threw the ignition system and see if anything is loose. Maybe your distrubtor cap is toast. Also pull the hotwires 1 at a time to see if every piston is getting spark. Make sure your timing is good and your spark plug gaps are correct. Remember its just a game of air and fuel.
