Default urgent help need guys..................................

right today my car has been fine until i put fuel in my car (£20 of bp ultmate)
but the light was on the dash for fuel
right cant run any boost total loss of power ,
even on the spot if i rev it hard it pop bangs ,when driving its fine driving off boost and ticks over fine,
if i rev slowly it will go to red line
so ive changed plugs, leads ,coil pack and still the same ,
so would the fuel filter block up this bad, or could it be the pump
or maybe the fuel
help pls cheers

bad fill of fuel IMHO, happened twice to me, run it off gently then refill with some ordinary unleaded to clear it out

drain your tank and see if the fuel is contaminated with anything.
