i second the ECU capacitors, but you can also check the transmission fluid. when was it last changed? it should be a nice red color. use only toyota type T-IV automatic transmission fluid when filling.

also, please use the procedure here to dump the diagnostic codes, the ECU will have a record of any misfires and point to the suspect component

post the codes here once you have them and we will analyze them for ya!
