Change the fuel filter and drain the gas tank, put fresh gas in. DO NOT USE Seafoam! The only additive you should use is Techron or something else that has PEA. Seafoam is rough on catalytic converters.

If the Techron doesn't help, I'd consider getting the injectors bench cleaned and tested - or rebuild them.
