Found my fuel filter was the problem on mine.
Turned the key on and off 3 times to push some fuel through for awhile there and it started no problem.

 

I got a problem with my 96 explore 4.0 it runs good but hesitate and die but cranks every time what u think

 

It will sit and run but put in in drive it like it's not getting any gas

 

So basically your Explorer dies as soon as you put it in Drive? I'd suspect either a low battery (that drops the system voltage too much when the engine is put under load and the brake lights are on) or you may have a vacuum leak that causes the engine to stall when a load is placed on it. If you very carefully, and preferably in an open area, give the truck some throttle when shifting to drive while firmly holding the brake pedal, will the truck remain running? If so, does it run rough under load?

When is the last time the truck had a tune up (spark plugs, plug wires, air filter, fuel filter)?

I tuned it up like 2 weeks ago

 

Some people say it might have water in the gas
