Car has been sitting for 2 years with gas in it (possibly dirty gas???). The car starts and drives then after 5-10 minutes the check engine lights comes on and the engine bogs when throttle is applied. More throttle = more bog.
Any help would greatly be appreciated..
Thanks!!!

dirty gas is not good, do you have access to a scanner? my knock sensor caused similar probs for me

another thought could there be a mouse nest in the exhaust, sounds like exaust could be blocked. Is this a car ur buying?
