Today's problem 200

Driving home last night in my old, dependable 85 245 wagon, and suddenly a problem arose. Out of the blue, it starts to stumble and miss when accelerating. It will clear up at cruising speed, but under load, it misses and cuts out. I also notice a smell like it's loading up on fuel, not a gasoline smell but almost like the exhaust is plugged. I'm going out now to troubleshoot, and will post any results. Anyone want to hazard a educated (by this board, of course) guess?
Thanks
steve
