There could be a leak that is seeping into the seating. Check the engine as well as the radiator to ensure there are no loose connections which could be affecting performance.

Sounds like your catalytic converter is getting plugged. The Rough idleing could also be apart of the IAC (Idle Air Control valve) being gunked up. Check the cats first, then if it continues to idle rough, take the IAC out and clean it with throttle body cleaner.
