Pretty vague description. You might get more response if you let us know what you've worked on lately, what troubleshooting you've done etc. I've found my own shadetree troubleshooting to be better than shops a lot of the time. What have you checked?
spark good on all cyl?
vacuum lines for leaks or wrong locations? crossed vacuum lines will do that.
when's the last time the fuel filter was changed?
dirty carb?
just a couple of thoughts of hand...

Quit flouring it and put gas in. I PROMISE it will run better.
