Had a weird thing happen to me the other day when I was driving home from work. About 2 minutes from my house I started to notice loss of power, like the car wouldn't go above 2k RPM as easy as it normally would. And then when I pulled into my driveway and put the car in park the car started to shake really bad and sounded like it wanted to stall. I shut the car off and didn't drive it the rest of the day. The next day I went and filled it up with some new gas and went on a 4 hour round trip and didn't have any issues. Was it just a case of bad gas? I filled the car up approximately a week before this issue happened. The oil temps were around 185 so it wasn't in limp mode or anything. Just wondering if this has happened to anyone else.
