Missfiring at load 900 1994

I have replaced rotor, distributorcap, fuel and airfilter also tried with annother
(used) powerstage (behind the left headlight on the inside of the fender). My tachometer also drops 5-700 revs intermittently, I sort of guess that the computer
goes down in limp home mode. Where shall I start fixing my problem HELP Please !!

Check the FAQ and resolder some relays, fuel pump, radio supression come to mind. Don;t suspect the computer yet. Any codes?

There are two ground points behind the passenger and driver side kick panels. Check the FAQ for more info. Corrosion is a problem. Also check the plug wires and their fitment at the distributor. New cap, did you mention?
