Some details would help.

What year is the car, and what engine? Are you sure it's the 2.3L 8V engine shared with the much-earlier W201, or the 2.3L M111 DOHC engine? They use completely different engine management and fuel injection systems, and diagnosing running problems for the two engines is a different process.

Does your car have a check-engine light? If so, is it on? Have you had any techs examine the car?

When was the last time tune-up parts were replaced? Plugs, wires, etc?
