How do I fix a 2002 Dodge Dakota V6 engine that is misfiring on Cyls. 1,3,5?

you need to check the plugs for those cylinders and the fuel injector that feeds that side of the engine it may not be working or is plugged with dirt. then it could be a vacuum leak around those cylinders. just some places to start.

Check your fuel filter again. Dirt from the tank could have clogged it again.

Car ran fine shut it off came back it didn't want to start. started went about half a mile sputered an died wouldn't start back up 1991 subaru loyal wagon

Hi sounds like the typical fuel pump or filter problem with these cars, best way to tell is take top fuel hose off on fuel filter under hood, turn key on ignition (not start) and fuel should pump out, if not its your pump, just beware of doing when engine is hot

As I began driving, it had been raining,the engine started sputering but the emissions light on the the dash didn't light up until about 2 miles down the road.After a while the sputering stopped. Will this...

It could be, if the light came on it should have logged a diagnostic trouble code and can be read with a scan tool to give you an idea of what went wrong. Very well could just need a tune up (plugs and wires).
