Could be a case of bad gas or bad gas pump.
I'd remove the fuel and put in new and see what happens. Or take it to a shop on a flatbed to avoid driving it in case it is something serious. |

If its hard to drain all the gas you can try buying a bottle octane booster and see if that helps!

Keep your rpm below 3k and avoid high speed/highway until you get a fresh tank.

I'm not sure I understand your logic in waiting until you're practically on empty before you put in better fuel. If the problem was caused by low octane, or even by water or sediment in the gas, you're far better off filling up ASAP with good gas from a top-tier gas station and diluting that bad gas with better fuel. If you wait until you're empty, you're just running the car on bad gas for longer and the remaining dregs may actually make the problem worse.
And don't buy cheap gas! Always buy premium, top-tier gas! (Google it)
