Bad gas?
I have gas that has been sitting in my car for about a year and a half. When i started up the car (CLK55 W208) It idles very rough. Should i drain the gas out and refill with fresh stuff?

That's a silly question.
May I ask where the car was that it was sitting for a year and a half?

How much gas is in the tank-if there is only a small amount in the fill the tank with good fuel and add a bottle of fuel system cleaner. The car wont run perfect for a couple of tanks, but it will be ok. If you have a decent amount of fuel in the tank-drain it.
