the set up,

drove the car about 500 miles this weekend from CT to NH and back. While up there I filled up with 89, I normally use 87. Get back and change the oil monday. Was running 10W-40 but we only had 5w-30 so I used that. Didn't drive the car much monday i used my fathers car.

the present,

Today car runs fine most of the morning then I notice this sputter. thought it was the clutch slipping so i wrote it off. I fill up with gas, going back to 87 and a little later the sputtering is worse. As I rev the engine it sounds like it is hitting the fuel cut off. The is trouble accelerating because of this. The car ran fine all weekend, never better. There is 106k on the clock and the timing belt was changed at 104k. in the last few weeks while driving on the highway and having to climb hills so that I have to put my foot down there is a slight hint of a sulfer smell, but I notice nothing from the tail pipe. Also there is no CEL

any help will be great. should I try to drive the car home? it would be fine at my girlfriends house for now, so that is not a worry
