1992 305 TBI problems

alright I am coming back from lunch and the car starts to act weird on me as soon as I get off the freeway it starts not wanting to go when I am hitting the gas pedal. then as I get closer to work it starts to die on me and at one point thats all it would do I start it and put it in drive and it died. So finally I get it going and I can mash the gas pedal and it is barely moving. is this a fuel problem or something else?

Throwing any codes?

Well it has been raining for the past few days but today it is just kinda misty. No I have not changed the fuel filter since I got it. and what do you mean by codes? I saw the service engine light come on.

Yep, you're throwin some codes as in the computer is telling you what is wrong. Search for Vader's posts about a paper clip to see what code you have.
