How far from home is he? Any way of getting to an autozone to pull the code?
suggested that - he's a couple hours away.

ok - a little more info.
Car was fine (of course) he had 2 bars of gas. Stopped for a fill up (full serve) guy put in $30 of regular. 15min later the car skipped noticably - 20 seconds after that - bad bog and CEL. Not blinking.

so $30 of 89? isn't it obvious that before he gas'd up he was fine...then he put crap gas and now he's ####ed?

*not meaning luis gas'd it up with that crap, meant the idiot kid who worked at the station*

If he makes it home without a blinking CEL , he should swap his plugs .

I bet you he has misfire codes . If it blinks it is severe misfire . But either way misfire under load will destroy plugs and also cause detonation . Not good in a S .

The octane would not cause the car to run like this, but water or other crap in the gas might have.
