    Car dies after acceleration

    Sorry if I'm being repetitive, still learning.
    My e30 has been sitting for 6 + months with me starting it about every 2 weeks.
    I went away for a month, went to start the car and no issues so far, started right up, but as I give it gas it dies as soon as I let off the throttle, has a very rough idle (sounds like its cammed out), and the fumes are unbearable (my eyes were watery with the car being outside). It was low on gas, but I put in 2 gals once I realized.
    Could I have gotten air in the fuel system? And if so, how do I purge it?

    I think you have a vacuum leak and exhaust leaks
