Have you load tested your battery? Have you scanned for trouble codes? Are the spark plugs in reasonably good shape. It's easy to forget about them these days. That's the first three things that I would do. After that, address the codes, if there are any. Might be as simple as poor electrical connections in the wiring harness. I've had a few things fixed just by cleaning and tightening connections. It's an old car and the electrical system does tend to break down.
