Crappy gas! 850 94

posted by  someone claiming to be Timbob on  Sun Feb 4 12:59 CST 2001 [RELATED]

Driving home from Albuquerque yesterday I was getting low (light on) so pulled into A Belen Conoco.......within 5 minutes after leaving the station engine hesitation no power. Check engine light illuminated after another few minutes of driving. Limped on home as I was still able to do the speed limit with no problem (75). Driving with muted power today but no missing.....What should I do? Drain the tank, add some fuel treatment? I get the impression from the back of some of the products out there that alcohol can damage fuel injectors and catalytic converters. Arghghghg!

Haven't got around to opening the hood since the correlation of getting gas and the problem seems so obvious.

Argh!
