Ok, the other day, Friday matter of fact, i was rushing to get to Ga because gas is a little cheaper over there and its not that far from my house, so anyways i was running low on gas, lower than what i usually run it to before filling up, last night it start idling really low and cutting in and out, all of the injectors are good, i added gas and fuel injector cleaner and i also replaced the fuel filter a couple of hours ago, and it is still "missing", is it possible that the gas i got was bad or that some moisture got in with the gas and i need to run it out and fill it back up..?

yea, its possible you sucked some junk from the bottom of the tank through into your injectors, FI cleaner won't always help that, you might want to take it somewhere and actually have them cleaned

Try some SeaFoam. It is supposed to remove moisture from your fuel system when added to the tank and at $3 a bottle, if it doesnt' work it isn't like a big loss.

Wiggle your MAF connector... make sure it's plugged in good.
