Could be a vacuum leak. Check for any cracked hoses around the intake.

Can you tell us a little about what normal service you have done to the car, because it could be a lot of things.

Fuel filter been changed within the last year, or so? Have you checked the air filter to make sure it is not obstructed? Spark plugs and wires original or changed when? Has the car been driven on a regular basis or parked? Original battery or replacement?

Just a little more info needed to help you narrow down the problem.
