Have you tried new plugs, wires cap and rotor, cleaning the throttle body?
Fuel pump issues perhaps?? O2 sensor?? I would try the simple basic stuff first.

Yea, I would just do a good tune-up on her and see if that fixes it, doesn't sound like anything serious. Good Luck.

Its probably something simple and a tune up will find/fix the problem. Good luck
