Now, I'm not sayen that Bubba was pumping the hi-test out of a 55 gal barrel, 1/3 full of water, ....... I wasn't about to chance it.
But, generally, these days, I would blame rough idle on an electrical (including ECU) problem rather than "bad gas".

It's done it since I got it six months or so ago. So I doubt it was bad gas.
