Answer
Most likely, your fuel pump is worn, causing low fuel pressure.  To check for sure, install a fuel pressure gauge (you'll need an adapter for the fuel filter or fuel line connection) and measure your fuel pressure.  The pressure should be 37 PSI at idle with the vacuum hose connected to the fuel pressure regulator and 44 PSI with the hose disconnected.  If your pressure is significantly lower, replace the fuel pump.
