Default 94 Beretta hesitates, runs rough, loss of power

My 94 beretta v6 3.1L will start every time, but after it warms up it starts to run rough and hesitates and seems to have a loss of power. It acts like a bad fuel filter or clogged injectors, but I replaced the fuel filter and ran fuel system cleaner through it and the problem still persists. It is most noticeable when idling and when running around 60-70mph and when accelerating. Any suggestions?

A better description may be that it chugs when kept around a steady speed and a little when accelerating and when at idle. That is what I'm trying to figure out and fix.

Is there a check engine light?

there was a check engine light that would come on sporadically until I replaced the throttle position sensor today. Now the engine light doesn't come on but the original problem still exists.
