That cured the hesitation/stumble I had on my '89 200 TQ.
I replaced just the plugs and wires.  First time for that in
the 3 years I've owned it.

Q1.  Should the cap also be replaced? I didn't.

Q2.  Is there anything else in the ignition system that should
        be replaced?  I'm an old fashioned kind of guy, and I'm
        thinking of things like points and condenser, although
        Hall sender (sensor?) might be more appropriate.
