Well i would do the usual stuff then:
-New Spark Plugs
-New Spark Plug Wires
-New Fuel Filter
-New Air Filter
-New PCV
-Seafoam it (search if you are unsure what this is)
-Clean MAF sensor
-Clean your Throttle body

I would do those things first if you know those items have not been replaced or cleaned. That would be a good start.
