Hello,

There is only one fuel filter. Two things come to mind, first is a vacuum leak which can fool the MAF sensor causing the engine to stumble. Here is a guide to look for that

Next is a weak fuel pump here is a guide to check that out.

Please run some tests and get back to us so we can continue helping you.

Cheers, Ken
