Sputtering when accelerating
My '94 with 59,000 miles just started coughing and sputtering when I accelerate from a stop. It idles fine and there are no problems once I get above 30 mph. Only happens from 0-30. I got gas at a place I haven't used in awhile, but used to use all the time and never had problems. Obviously, I'm thinking bad gas. Doesn't matter if I'm going straight or turning a corner, it sputters. 
Should I put some dry gas in it (I've heard of the stuff, but never used it)? Guess it could also be the fuel filter. As far as I know, it's never been changed.

Gas could be a problem, but just to be safe, check all your plug wires and the coil wire and make sure they aren't touching anything. That's happened to me many times
