Answer
I would first connect a fuel pressure tester, and make sure it isn't starving for fuel.
I assume the fuel filter is clean?
Make sure there is a vented cap on the gas tank also, so a vacuum isn't forming in the tank.

Then connect a vacuum guage, and see if the vacuum is dropping, like from a plugged up exhaust system, unless you have headers and glasspacks, or some type of performance exhaust.
