This one coule be a little tricky. It could be anything for a bad vacuum line, a dropped valve, bad plugs or wires, crossed wires, a rounded off cam lobe, loose timing chain just to list a few. I would start going threw the basic stuff first. Check all your vacuum lines really good. get the firing order and check the plug wires. Pull the plugs and see if one is fouling and firing off time. That is where I would start before checking internals. Although I have more than once seen a car from little old ladies that turn out to be headaches because they didn't drive it much and then when ya go to put some miles on it it starts breaking stuff.
