Default CEL light and sputtering

After having gas smell for a couple of days, now I'm getting a sputtering and a CEL light,

The codes I'm getting are 0300 and 0308 misfire on cylinder 8.

I'm I to assume that this is all related, I'm I losing fuel pressure thereby the misfire?

Default WOW...worked like a charm. I can't believe it.

I put that 20 oz. bottle in, after a while it kind of farted a big shudder and then it ran smooth as silk.

Thanks a lot KYNZ
