Question Doesnt wanna start

hey guys,
So lately my'91 doesnt wanna start on the first crank, it just keeps cranking over. after about 3 tries itll start but real rough and it'll idle at about 1300rpm for a long while then go down to 800rpm later in day. Also (not sure if this contributes to it) when im driving, it seems that the car is real laggie when i press in the gas and has a hard time picking up..
What do u think it could be? Fuel, Spark, Coolant, water pump, fuel pump?
