it sounds sensor related, one minuite it was running fine the next its running on three cylinders onto four.

check to see if you have not accidently unplugged any sensors or see if any wires are frayed

also what about your o2 sensor,

if thats as old as 2oo,ooo miles it should be on its last legs.
