Default 93 mustang lx 2.3 stalles going up hills and around 55 mph?

I just got this car 2 weeks ago and it runs like crap.When i pull out of my driveway i have a small hill to go up and when it shifts into 2nd gear it wants to stall so i have to just coast till i get to the top of the hill then it speeds back up and runs fine.But when i got on the interstate and got up to around 55mph it lost all power and i had it to the floor i almost had to pull over then it picked up speed again and the only thing i could think it would be is the maf sensor so i was going to buy one but i need some other opinions on this am i right or is it something else?

it's probably fuel line related. Replace your fuel filter.

If you still have issues after that, try just cleaning your MAF rather than buying a new one.
