Is my timing off?

Hello guru'
I have an '88 9000 Turbo with 186k. It runs well for the most part. I have been traveling and it has seen many different elevations recently. I noticed that in the higher gears and in the middle RPM range that the car was bucking intermittently. As if it wasn't firing correctly. I replaced the plugs and gapped to spec. I also replaced the cap, rotor, and wires. It seemed to run fine after that, but eventually I noticed the problem again. I pulled the plugs and regapped. Still having the bucking problem and it is definitely worse at higher elevations. Could my timing be a bit off? Thanks for any help.
S.
