Default 98 s70 engine trouble

my brothers 98 s70 is having some engine trouble. the best way i can describe it is that when it is revving up, it will sputter/shutter and sometimes die. im sure it could be any number of things, including clogged injectors. it seems to be misfiring imo. any opinions are appreciated.

vac lines are good. throwing codes for a misfire on cylinder #2 and also a code for a random misfire.
