Question Do I have bad gas?

Uh... in my car that is.

My 16 valve is hesitating when I try to accelerate. It's like I'm gently pressing down on the brakes just as I try to accelerate.

I'm thinking maybe bad gasoline because I put two gallons into a nearly empty tank and began noticing the problem 15 or so miles later after exiting off a highway.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
