Bad Gas????
Would bad gas cause my car to act like it has a miss??? It was running like a champ before I stopped and put a dose ( full Tank)
of Shell V power in my car. Monday morning coming to work it started to miss at around 2000 rpms. IT has gotten progressively worse (sputtering a bit and loss of power). I drove home yesterday and to work today in third gear just to burn that fuel out. I also just put about 7 gallons of Chevron (what I usually get) in it this morning also.
We had the Ethanol scare last month and some stations converted to it...They do not have to tell you if they have it (which is bull) but could that crap make my car run like this???
Thanks

Put two bottles of Heet gas water remover into the tank and no help.....How long does it take for this stuff to work??? I traveled approx. 5 miles w/ the two bottles in there. I am guessing I might need to put two more bottles in there???
