Anytime you suspect a fuel issue, use a gage and check fuel pressure. How long since a tune-up? Any applicable trouble codes? Some of the national brand autostores will check codes for free. With intermittent issues, you may have to test when problem is ongoing.

You didn't answer about the tune-up? At the moment, too many possibilities. I need something to point us in the right direction, fuel--spark-- sensor signals? I looked at your TSBs didn't see anything that caught my attention.
