3.4? They are prone to gaskets leaking at the intake manifold and that makes them run terrible. Check for codes first though. Nothing saves money like doing some proper trouble shooting first.

I had the same exact problem happened with my 95. I replaced the fuel rail and injectors and it was perfectly fine!
