Need info man. To many things can cause your symptoms. . Need to know what you have tried doing to correct the problem. Need info on the variables. Engine cold? Warm? After long drive? Mods to the car?

Fuel pump driver module. Mine finally glory crapped and threw a fpdm failure code. Hard to test for though. Mine was a little different, lost power while rolling. Left it sit for a whilst and the symptom would disappear. Went a year between failures. At first it only threw a low fuel pressure code. And if dorman makes something it's def a problem part. There is also a TSB for your symptoms, aeration in the fuel due to the pumps.

Fuel Pump TSB 06-9-9. Air bubbles get trapped in the pump which causes the hesitation.
