Check the engine for vacuum leaks, proper adjustment of the throttle, clogged/ gummed up fuel injectors/carb jets, proper spark plug gap, clean plugs, and proper ignition timing. If everything on the engine checks out, check the Transmission torque Converter Clutch, as it might be stuck in the engaged position.
