Pretty hard to guess what it might be from your description. Not likely anything too serious though. Take it to a shop and have them check it out. Don't just start throwing parts at it and hoping for a miracle. That rarely works.

Hey I had a ‘91 and it was a bad fuel injector. Would drive but to accelerate you had to barely give it gas even to little it dies. Mechanic I had just decided to unplug one injector at a time till the correct (bad) one and motor started running beautiful. Replaced it and problem solved. Hope that helps narrow it down
