Hello all, here goes

93 240 wagon, increasingly difficult starting (needs gas pedal), idles with occasional stuttering, stalls when you apply generous throttle, but not if you bring it up slow. Goes down fighting, bucking, knocking when it stalls. Restarts with gas pedal help as above. Behavior is the same whether in gear or neutral. Sometimes the problem disappears, but is becoming more frequent.

replaced mass airflow sensor, no result. Replaced fuel pump relay, cleaned fuse connections, no change.

No obvious holes in the intake bellows past MAS, will pull it tonight and shine a light in there. I did notice some fluid in the intake bellows - not sure what it was.

Going to go fill 'er up with gas and notice if things improve.

Any help greatly appreciated!!!!
