Car will start won't go. Quits when it gets gas

Asked by Cthomas0317 Dec 29, 2019 at 01:29 AM about the 2011 Ford Fusion SE V6

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

It's a Ford fusion 2011. Thought it was running bad,
like sputtering like I'm fixing to run out of gas. It
read I had 36 miles to E. Got gas it crunk right up
but quit on down road. It then would turn over but
not start. Soon as my cousin came to look at it, I
turned it over, it started right up. I made it like 3
miles down the roadto his house. I turned it off and
immediately started it back up, no problem.
Decided to leave it running while I ran gift inside.
When for back it had quit. Tried to start it, turns
over, you can hear starter kicking on but won't
start. After turning key off, waiting about 3 minutes
tried again once more. Started, gets gas while in
park, put it in gear and it dies. Idk what to even so I
can ride. Tried a few more times, it cranks, but dies
when in gear. Thought maybe i got trash in my gas
filter or something, hoping it's a simple fix like that
and not starter or fuel pump. Idk really need help!
