Do you get a Service Engine Soon light?

Anyway, could be a vacuum leak, bad MAF, bad TPS, bad evap canister purge valve (you'd definitely get an SES for this), or possibly corrosion buildup on the battery (you'd probably have starting issues and get some electrical disruptions when braking too).

We can sit here and guess all day, but without knowing what code you're throwing it's shots in the dark. Get a scan done and post up the code (or if they tell you what it is, that'll work even better).
