Not me, but the owner of my old '94 100S Avant thinks I'm still responsible for 
one. :)

First thing to do is pull the codes:
<http://www.12v.org/maintenance/dtc.php>

If there are no codes, then we need more:

Is it rough at idle but smooths out at speed?
Does it have normal power, but just runs rough?

Pull the codes first.
