vacuume leak, distributor 180° out of time, cam gears off set slightly, there's lots of things to check... Start with making 100% sure everything is in time, then check your vacuume lines on the intake manifold. Most likely, you've got a ripped/pinched/disconnected line somewhere, or maybe a coil wire just not 100% on.

MAF Sensor, check if everything is plugged in, and check for leaks
