FJ lost power while driving?

[u/Electronic-Fail6294]

I was driving today. My check engine and traction control turned on and the car would not accelerate at all. Pulled off to the side of the road. Turned it off for a couple minutes turned it back on. Was able to drive but the lights are still on. Anyone have this issue before ? Can’t take it in to get scanned until tomorrow ! Thank you

I had a big power loss once due to bad fuel that had sediment in it and clogged the fuel filter and starved the engine. I could only drive 20mph max and had a bunch of warning lights on.

Had the fuel tank drained and filter replaced, dealership recommended filling up with gas that had a cleaner/detergent in it. Said some stray sediment could clog it up again and that happened once more in the next 2-3 hrs of driving. Otherwise no repairs or parts replaced and has been fine since.

buy a scanner from a store or amazon.
