trucks acting up

about a week ago i ran one of my tanks low but not out. i must have some water or bad fuel in the bottom because truck started studering. runs fine now but when i try to take off in first gear it acts like it is getting no fuel and starts to die two out of three times. sometimes it will do it in second gear, but does it at no other time. what is wrong?

Have you drained and checked your filter? Might have sucked some crap up off the bottom of the tank.

Might be the beginnings of a cam sensor failure too.
