HELP!!!!!!

I posted a few days ago and no one has answered, can someone help me PLEASE. I have a 04 explorer 4l v6 4x4 with 41000kms. Monday I put in gas, drive home parked it.Tuesday morning I started it with my remote start, it ran for 10 seconds then stalled. Started it again and it was fine. I have noticed since then that when I come to a stop it idels rough. No codes appear. So then I thought it was the spark plugs. Went to Ford purchased factory platinum plugs ($70) and changed them. Not the problem. I really didn't need to change them because the factory platinum plugs that were in there were fine. I am wondering if I got bad gas or is here another problem. Can someone help, I just bought this explorer a month ago!!!!!!!

Do you have the ability to scan for misfire by the cylinder?
Then you’ll have an idea where the hesitation coming from
And if you think it’s the gas
Have you tried the fuel additive
