As I stated above; Cheap Fix
Now you know what caused your issue. Only use top tier fuel, and if there is a performance issue: Decarbonize.

have you noticed if it is happening at a certain fuel level maybe something is off with the sending unit in the pump or the fuel gauge is miss reporting the amount of fuel or the fuel pump pickup is disconnected or damaged.

Good questions.
I always ask many questions to the customer before servicing their concern.
A problem here: post an issue and give limited information.
From the limited information I gathered, fuel contamination is the cause?
