Bad Gas or ?

Just came in from St. Louis. Bought some gas, 20 miles later when I try to maintain speed on the highway the motor cuts out and loses speed. Stopped and bought a bottle of HEET and some SEA FOAM injector cleaner. I made it home south of Rolla by not going over 50 mph. What's my problem, Filter or Pump? Also about 30 miles out the "service engine soon" light came on.

I'd get the codes read on this one. Sounds like a serious problem... ignition or computer failure and a possible limp home mode- possible loss of coolant; could be any of these.

Pretty tricky to tell without the computer codes to help and a hands on check of the systems.
