does it only do it while driving? or does it do it at idle too?

is the idle bouncing at all? your distributor could be bad, sounds like it running on 3 cylinders. If u changed the spark plugs and the wires seem to be good then most likely its the distributor.

If you did the spark plugs and wires you should also do the cap and rotor. Then if your still having issues, check injectors as well as distributor may be bad.

But do the cap and rotor since they are cheap at any parts store, just get the right kind, there are different variations that 240s came with based on years etc. So its best to take them off and go to the parts store to make sure you are getting the same ones.

Once you do that and still have issues reply to the thread. Hope you find the issue, good luck.
