My 240 wagon schlep,sputter ,pop,bang! 200 1986

I have a problem with my 240. There is no power. It just doesn't want go! It will idle but when I press down on the gas It dies. When it was running it was idleing rough and would backfire. It was slowly getting worse but I could still drive it. Today I decided to take it in the shop. I figured I would let my mechanic look at it and set up an appointment. I didn't make it...the car just died. I can start it and the car will idle but then it just sputters and coughs when I give it gas like it has a bad cold. Anyone know whats wrong? Something fuel related? Injectors or airflow meter? Maybe a sensor? I had the tank pump fixed a month ago. Just wondering if it's something simple like a vacume line or bad fuel filter. I had new plugs,rotor,cap and air filter put on two weeks ago. Thanks, Perry
