P 2302 Fault Code unable to find

[Turbo Red]

My engine light came on, 30 sec later it started to blink and headed home < 1/4 mile running ruff. Removed Neg from Batt, got gas from a place I don't get gas from but was sucking fumes. Hooked up Neg. and light went out drove about 5 miles about 1/4 mile from home it started again. Did the code check thing and got P 2302. Have checked PTDIY, this forum google and lycos have found many codes but not this one. Any Ideas??

Thanks
