Unhappy Mustang running rough help

my mustang has been running rough for a week know, when i drive it it feels like its going to die when at a light or on the freeway, when i take off from a light it hesitates real bad and then is rough idling like its not getting fuel, any suggestions would help.

it's hard to make out from your description
check filters (air/fuel)
if you are running points in your distributor, re-set them (adjust them)
that's what I'd start with
