If your tank is full and you suspect bad gas, why not syphon it off. I'm not sure how you would dispose of it responsibly though. On the other hand if your tank is half empty/full, purchase some premium high octane gas and top off the tank. You may just get through this with no problems. Bad gas can wreak havoc on any car, especially older models. Your ECM will do it's best in making any adjustments in the meantime. Good Luck.
