pop off your distributor cap, and make sure everything is perfectly dry and clean under there. Something could be messing with you spark!!

o2 sensors are about $50 each.. did you change ur fuel filter yet? and premium fuel shouldnt do anything for a hesitation.. if ur engine pings (makes a nasty charrteing sound when floored) then premium will prob help you out cuz ur timing was bumped (happened to me) but def change that filter and check if you have propper fuel pressure. oh and clean the MAF anyway
