my brother (who also has an '88) recently experienced the same phenominon after replacing the cap, rotor, wires and plugs. After MUCH gnashing of teeth and wringing of hands, it turned out to be the ground wire on the fuel rail. Must have been disturbed during the tune up which caused an intermitent loss of power to the fuel pump. Big headache to diagnose, cheap and easy to fix
