1) carbon buildup in the combustion chamber and on valves (lots of short trips? Take her out on a continuous 2 hour road trip) 2) idle solenoid leaking or otherwise gasoline seeping through 3) overheating 4) all of the above, usually
5) too low octane gasoline or too high compression, same effect, gasoline is easier to fix.
