E300 owners, car telling you ya got bad fuel?

My '97 E300 seems that it is really sensitive to some types of diesel I fill her up with. What I mean, sometimes I'll find a station add a few gallons if not top it off and the damn thing while driving start randomly nailing and will develop a light hesitation, a hesitation at a consistent rhythm. Just not what I needed to experience this morning. I bought from a station on my way to Atlanta this weekend. It was a BP that apparently already has the 15ppm ULSD (had the decal on the pump). On the way there it semed ok, decent power and decent MPG. I figure on the way back since it's on the way I'd top her off since my E300 is my current DD again.....

I know I prolly have to service the injectors, but this is random. You can never tell how my E will react. I noticed the cap had some condensation on the fuel cap... Can I assume more water in the fuel that usual for the E to dislike it....
