Stumbling/ Bucking 700 1987

My Brick has an intermittent stumble when fully warmed. Car sometimes "bucks" violently depending on speed. This has been ongoing for some time, and last night I replaced the Hall Sensor, but it still happens. My next step is to tackle the wiring harness, which needs attention.

Any other sugestions which may help to locate the problem would be appreciated.

Thanks

    EPS: could be a bunch of things, here's a few to check, no doubt with subsequent input from other Bricksters: Air Mass Meter; throttle body; fuel filter; fuel pump relay; PCV/flame trap system; accordion-hose from airbox/Air Mass Meter to engine: the bottoms of those things are notorious for developing cracks/splits/breaks, which will affect air-flow/vacuum, causing stumbling, usually on the bottom where you can't see it, so you have to remove the whole thing, take it into a dark room, shine a flashlight into it, look for light leaking through the breaks/splits, etc: replace it; fuel pressure regulator; spark plugs, spark plug wires; oil in the distributor; bad battery ground; broken/split/shorting-out wiring harness...want more? GO TO IT, amigo! That should keep you busy for a while. --PD.
