1985 W 126 380 SE Runs rough when warm

I just bought a 126 1985 380 SE For a daily driver . Once the engine gets to about 80c . The car starts to run rough . I did replace the 02 sensor . I know the muffler has some holes in it .
Feels like it's heating out of time . Like a bad cylinder . But I don't think it's the engine . Can the problem be distributor related . I don't know much about cars with emissions . Or how
newer cars function so much !

Those 80's MB's are very difficult to diagnose without the MB tools therefore you can continue on with your FUYAA and not find the fault or locate a euro guy who knows the engine!!
