Possibly the distributor is off-time, or on it's way out, are you getting worse/bad mpg? Seem like it has less power? Does it shake or wobble a bit when it's running? Otherwise, lifter knocking, worn valve guides, bent valve, maybe a valve spring, the serpentine belt could be frayed and the loose strand smacking against something, maybe a bearing in one of the pullies is going bad.
