Not sure about why your engine is running rough sometimes but yes, you should have a fuel/water separator.

These are fairly inexpensive and do 2 jobs. Filter the fuel and capture water at the bottom of the filter as water is heavier than fuel. The filter should be changed at least every season.

I have a Sierra brand fuel/water separator in my Outrage 18' that filters the fuel for both my main engine and my kicker.
