1992 305 TBI problems

alright I am coming back from lunch and the car starts to act weird on me as soon as I get off the freeway it starts not wanting to go when I am hitting the gas pedal. then as I get closer to work it starts to die on me and at one point thats all it would do I start it and put it in drive and it died. So finally I get it going and I can mash the gas pedal and it is barely moving. is this a fuel problem or something else?

Changed the fuel filter lately?

Throwing any codes?

Well it has been raining for the past few days but today it is just kinda misty. No I have not changed the fuel filter since I got it. and what do you mean by codes? I saw the service engine light come on.

Yep, you're throwin some codes as in the computer is telling you what is wrong. Search for Vader's posts about a paper clip to see what code you have.
