Angry Check engine light, erratic and rough idle... tempramentally???

Just went to put petrol in the car, she was very low so maybe this could be something to do with it?

When i pulled in to the petrol station check engine light came on and started idling funny, too high and unsteady also rough as well. Put petrol in, started it... absoloutely fine for 10 seconds then same thing. Nursed it home and just as i pulled into the driveway it went off and idled fine. Could the fuel filter have got a bit blocked up causing this?

How worried should i be?

Any help much appreciated, pretty f****d off coz just put a new turbo, tyres and ordered a load of oil!

Dave

ps. with the new turbo going on its been running full boost (1.1 bar) now and im rather worried that ive damaged something
