If you do suspect bad gas, pull the fuel filter off and try not to spill any gas, then empty the fuel filter into a clear container and let it sit for a little while. If there is water or anything that is not gas in there it will separate and stay on the bottom. The reason I think that it could be contaminated fuel is that the fuel filter will catch the water until it goes past the opening in the side, and you said that when you changed the filter it cleared up for a while, while this could just be coincidence, it could also be a clue.
Sorry if I gave you alot if things to check but with a problem like this I always try the easiest/cheapest things first then go from there.

havent pulled the plugs yet, i was workin on it late lastnight getting everything back together after throwing the rear, etc back in Rons car. ill check that next time i work on the car and also check the gas. ive gotten gas from all of the same places that i always do. there 1 sunoco and 2 wawas that i get gas from. and i believe i would have burned all of the gas anyway on sunday night when she was running great. no appology needed i appreciate that your not having me buy a new opti lol. i may have my old opti laying around that was still working great that i can throw in there just to see if its the optical sensor going bad in my new one which would be strange at 6k miles but still possible
