Cheapest & easiest & most likely; replace fuel filter.  I've had these
types of symptoms a couple of times, both with my syncro & 2wd -
emergency 'fix' & get the thing home; Techron.  I'd suggest doing both,
replace the fuel filter, put in a bottle of Techron (gas additive, &
also injector cleaner & etc.), fill up with premium.


Let me know how it goes,


Thanks,


Rich
