Fuel filters may be gummed up from the old gas sitting and now being run, the nasty stuff may have went from the tank to the filter.
Going to want to check fuel pressure as well...but I would be changing the fuel filters first.

Check out the fuel rails for a shrader valve where you can check fuel pressure.
Removing and having the injectors cleaned and flowed is a good idea, especially if you dont know the last time its been done.
