sounds like the typical ignition coil failure happening. I am in the middle of the same thing and will be buying coils next week.

95-97 are not known for ignition coil problems. Clean the Throttle Body and IACV. Replace feul filter and air filter.

I would also check O2 sensor operation and fuel pressure also spray some carb cleaner around the intake manifold and see if there is an rpm increase to check for a vacuum leak
