misfire/bogging/backfire
My 93 Park Ave has been fairly good to me over the 2 years i've had it, and lately it's been feeling bogged down. It seems to only happen when it's wet out (i.e., raining), and when it's freshly started. However, after it's warmed up, it still does it; just not as much. also, if i am gunning it, it backfires. I'm not sure what could be causing this. I have done most of a tune up lately. In the past 2-3 months, I have changed: fuel filter, O2 sensor, spark plugs, and air filter. Oil change is current.

Did you do wires too along with the plugs?
Just curious.
