When was the last time you did a tune up?
How about the fuel filter?
Have you checked the fuel pressure at the fuel rail?
Right hand side of the engine there is awhat looks like a tire valve, check the fuel pressure there with a fuel pressure gauge, if you cannot get one then you can use a dial tire gauge.

You need over 30psi for the engine to run well enough to drive, 34-36 is the ideal range.
