305 TBI hesitation??

When picking up speed slowly the car kinda hesitates/surges a little. When I'm in overdrive running around 50-60 mph the car likes to hesitate/surges. But when I pick up speed harder it doesn't do it or when Im in overdrive if im running 65mph or above it will not do it. what could this issue be?Please help
P.S. its a 1992 firebird conv. 305 tbi automatic all stock

If it is at one speed range, I would check to TPS first (you can check with a meter).
There's how too's if you search.

Surging at cruise can, among many other things, be caused by EGR malfunction.

From your two threads it sounds like you are running lean under various conditions. Time to check the fuel pressure.
