88 Rx7

The other day i dorove my can in to work and everything was find with it NO probs at all then out of the blue i went to start my car to drive home and it just sounded different no bad just different so then i started to drive and thats where i know there is something wrong with my car now. It felt like it was only running one one rotor i had not power at all but i could get up to speed ok just took along time. Eather way when i Get home i do what i thought would be the 1st step look for spark and yes i did then i look at my timeing and well it was a little off but not so much i would think it would do what it would do. so not i am lost if anyone knows something i am over looking plz let me know. thank you so much
