If it has sat for awhile the fuel that was in it is starting to go bad! Not to mention if it was left near empty it was condensing water. First double dose it with 2 bottles of heet and one bottle of iso heet on whatever is in the tank, Drive it at least 10 miles then fill it with low octane gas. Gas over 90 days old is starting to rise in octane points and it will have a tough time burning it and the water will be partially or totally blocking small openings in the fuel rail,lines, filter etc.

If you have intermittant running problems or a flat spot/buck/dying/cutting out while accelerating.
Do your self a favor and try some dedicated gas
line dryer, Double or even triple dose it, It's cheaper
then throwing parts at a problem that doesn't throw
codes!!
