760T surging then stalling 700 1988

Hello everyone,

My '88 760 Turbo recently developed a strange symptom...it will occasionally start to surge between 2000 or so rpm and 0 rpm, then it will stall. It doesn't always do this, only intermittently. I usually does it at idle, but tonight it did it while I was driving at 25-30 mph. It started surging, then it finally stalled and didn't want to re-start. I waited a few minutes and tried again to start it, and it started and ran fine. This has only been doing this since Tuesday night, when I gassed her up at a station that I usually don't go to (it was a good brand of gas, however; Sunoco 94) Could it be just bad gas? As I said, it only does this occasionally, but I don't want her to stall in traffic. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
