Default motor running weird

Hi,

My friend set up is acting pretty weird. The car used to ran like a charm and when he put it away for winter, there was no problem. Now, after a winter, the car idles but when you give it gas, its wants to die but doesnt and goes right back up. We have no clue what the problem is. It just has happened like that. Could it be because we put on gaz stabilizer and its old gaz or plugs and wire. He is running and msd thingie...no idea what it is

here a lil video that sucks...

I would start by draining all the old gas out, new fuel filter,new plugs and go from there. Half year old gas probably isnt too good for a car tuned on 94 octane

Yea, my first guess would be the gas, then check the wires (maybe corrosion?)
