Problems 3.0 v6 ranger

I have a 94 ranger that is acting strange. The problem started a week ago. The truck was running for about 5 mins as I was driving down the street it just started to bog down a bit then died on me. I started it back up then it seemed to be ok. The next few days it seemed fine then about 3 days later It wouldn't start. A few hours passed and I tried it again and it started up. When I give it gas fast it seems like it wants to die but if I slowly give it gas its fine. Do you guys think its the fuel fiter thats bad? What should I try doing first?

Yes bad gas is a possibility...also check all electrical and vacuum connections as these will have a adverse effect on running. This may require the newer computer diagnostic tools at a reputable shop.
