+1, basically you need to go thru the engine front to back and check out everything......if you don't have the knowledge/time/tools to do it, find a friend that does or make friends with someone that can help you out........

I'm betting a "basic" tune-up,plugs/plug wires(?)/air filter/set the timing correctly/vacuum line/etc./etc. will make a world of difference in how your engine runs!!!!!
