Holding back.... S70 1999

I own a 1999 S70, and have noticed that while driving down the road, it seems to be kind of bogging down a little, then right back up to full power. It feels almost like the fuel filter is clogged or maybe my injectors are getting dirty. It runs great, but this bogging down is scaring me. What should I look for? I am planning on installing a new fuel filter, spark plugs, and wires, and adding some type of fuel system cleaner this weekend. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Get somebody to scan the codes for you--could be any, or a combination, of several things.

      I took it to auto zone and they did pull two codes from the car. One was something about my fuel mixture was lean, the other was the oxygen sensor. Would these faults cause my troubles? They seem to be getting worse, especially when going down the interstate at 70 mph or more.

    All those replacements are good ones and I hope it makes a difference. The thing you should be most concerned about is the ETM...hope it's not that. If it is, all your good intentions will not pay off and you will have to replace the ETM for about $1000. Wish you luck.
