Sounds like an O2 sensor or wiring problem. The flooring fix gives it
away.

Hello,I have done most possiable repairs trying to get rid of VS. Cant
find it. I have... replaced afm w. another, added a .22 mfd capacitor to
this afm, added a ground wire to the afm,swapped ecu,swapped
coil,swapped hall control,wiggeled wires,wiggeled ignition
switch,checked all over for vacuumn leaks, gapped throttel switch,put a
new return spring on the throttle,cleaned out throttle,new air
cleaner,idle stabilizeer bypassed and I am sure , more, only I cant
remember them right now . These symptoms occur off idle and at mid
range.Mostly when very warmed up(20miles).Also, I get stalling when
cold, or when it hasent been started in a couple hours.I can cure the
hesitation problem by flooring the gas pedel, so I think this is not the
ignition switch,or a fuel supply problem.It sounds like a computer
related sensor problem--but wont hold an idle in the morning.Maybe I
have 2 seperate problems.Just dont know.I can drive locally ok, but when
I get on the highway, or drive for a long
 time , I start getting bucking,and it wont quit,except when I floor
it.#@**^)*(YI&*T*%^$#@!! Any ideas? I'll try them all. I think I have a
bad afm, but I have swapped it 3 times. 3 bad afms? Only the distributor
and wiring between the hall control-dist.- idle stabilizer--and
coil,have not been swapped.Thanks, Roger
