rough idle & no acceleration 700 1992

The description you gave may indicate an engine just running on 3. To confirm or deny, the procedure is to run the engine with each plug wire off one at a time. Remove and replace the wires with engine off. If a cylinder is not firing you will know because removal of that wire will make no difference in the idle or power. It's just a quick test.
If you are firing on all 4 then proceed to other things, you can do similar test of course with the injectors.
What is your idle RPM? Check engine light on, any fault codes?
