Default Bad Gas?

96 civic ex

I got about 30 bucks worth of gas last Tuesday at Getty.

The pump was messed up, kept stopping and the guy kind made it work in NJ we do not pump our gas.

Towards the end he topped it off about a extra buck's worth.

This was lunch time.

About 4 hours later went to leave work and the car ran rough, idle was real low and almost stalled, esp with AC on.

the next few days started the car cold and still ran rough, when it was run for like 15 mins seems to be better.

Friday put in gas again different station about 25 bucks worth, seems to be getting a little better day by day, still a little rough starting out esp in the morning.

Could it be bad gas? or since the pump was screwed up? or being topped off (typically I never top off)

could be bad gas. Run some fuel system cleaner thru and get better gas from now on.

I normally only put shell in my car and have never had issues.
