Problem


I have an 02 v6. So heres the story. I was on empty so i got gas at the gas station. About a minute later my car Fs up. It barely made it into the parking spot without dying (automatic btw). What it kinda feels like is the fuel filter is full or one of the injectors isnt working or somethin like its not gettin enough fuel to the engine and it sputters sometimes. In the moring i have a steep driveway and when i first turn it on and try to go up it, it dies mostly. And step on the gas for the first time it doesnt really do anything until it finally kicks in and goes. I took it to autozone where they did a free diagnostic check but the codes were to high or w/e and they dont know what they are so i have to take it into ford. I hope this is enough discription of the problem, i hope someone can tell me whats wrong because i dont want to pay ford a ton of money to look at it hah thanks guys.
