Could be a clogged fuel filter, among other things...

I don't think three months would be enough to freeze up your injectors, but it's worth looking at, after the fuel filter. I had similar problems after my 2G sat for six months. I ran some really strong injector cleaner through it and it fixed the problem. Unfortunately, it did nothing for the 5th and 6th ports, which still appear to be acting a little squirrely.
