It has 158,000 miles on it. Was running great until got gas with water in it. Or at least what I was told

So, if I understand correctly, you have never actually had the car running well enough to drive on the road? Take s fuel sample to confirm or deny the 'water in fuel' idea. Then it's back to basics, air- fuel -spark. Test and or visually inspect to prove correct fuel PRESSURE, correct valve timing (chain jumped?), air(MAP/MAF)-broken intake hose ,etc.
