Odd start up problem

We drove about 50 miles, stopped for an hour and when we tried to start, it (88 900S) would barely keep running and it would not rev up when giving it gas. The Check Engine light was on. After not finding anything obvious under the hood, I kept trying to start it while pumping the gas. Eventually it revved up and ran fine all the way home. About half way home tho, the Check Engine Light came back on and stayed on, although the car ran fine.
We let it sit for about an hour and then tried to go to the store, it started and went about 200ft and quit with the same start up symptoms. I was able to get it home by repeatedly starting and pumping the gas until it ran fine again.
The only thing I have done to it recently was to dump a can of BG 44K into the the tank.
Is this an AMM symptom? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, BillC
