1996 Dodge Dakota. Engine stutters

[MRX37]

I wouldn't set foot in a dealership to save my life.

I showed the video to a mechanic, their diagnosis: water in the gas line...

...could it be that simple?

I'm going to get some help pushing it up to level ground where I can jack it up and have a look at that starter. With any luck that's the reason it won't crank anymore. I did start it more then a few times trying to get it home...
