sounds like a sensor problem giving you a inacurate reading. unplug the fuel pump and plug it back in. might fix the problem with your gas problem. reset everything fkc it.

Change the rotor and cap and see if the problems still exists. Check the codes the ECU is giving. When was the last time you did a tune up?

I would check into the ECU codes as well. Pico could be right, the O2 sensors may be in need of replacement.
