Default Bad gas?

I went to get some gas at my local hess station. and i put about $20 in high test but it said less the 10% ethanol. After i left the station my check engine light came on and my car is now misfiring like crap. I got it diagnosed at advanced and the code was 2 misfires in cyl # 7 what should i do? I have an 03 z06 with 6k on it. thanks mike
