The first thing that should be checked are the fuel and air filters. Also the distributor cap has a resister built into it that can break down. The plugs and wires could also cause the problem.

If you know that these components are in good condition, then a fuel pressure and volume test should be performed. A check for codes if the engine light has come on should be done. Also check the timing.
