Thanks for all the input. I'm on it and will let you know what ended up being the problem.

 

How do you normally accelerate from a stop? Easy to just below mid? Reason I ask, I've seen a coil pack to the same thing. Light acceleration is fine, little more gas, stumbles, floor it, cleans up. You can troubleshoot with a known good one if you have a buddy with one, or will let you borrow one. They're not too tough. Just a thought. Good luck.

Well it has been awhile since I posted here but did figure out what the problem was. I ended up doing a BG service on the intake or injectors and one for the transmission. Did not solve the problem unfortunately. A few weeks later I came out and the car was dead. Bought a new battery and the hesitation has not returned and it has almost been 2 years. So either a weak battery was causing this or when I disconnected the battery it reset something in the computer. Anyway thought I would post this because it was driving me crazy when it was happening. Late

 

hmm odd fix. weak battery causes failed spark? interesting thought
