I don't know about the vibrating lines and injectors,but my 87 Iroc w/ 350 TPI does the same "hesitation" after I get stuck in a traffic jam,or have to drive slow for extended periods of time.We've narrowed it down to a "vapor lock" of sorts,as the underhood heat boils the fuel in the rails.....I've had it stall out before if I didn't feather the gas just right.Once I start driving again(normally),it goes away.This only happens to me after the car is at normal operating temps.,and then I get stuck in extended periods of slow driving or sitting at an idle for a period of time(like traffic jams and such) it pisses me off ,especially if it does die and I have to get it restarted and get it to drive.I've been thru three ignition modules,and tried a couple different coils,so it isn't my ignition...it's definately a heat build up problem in traffic.I live in Tampa,Florida....so driving in inferno weather in the summer doesn't help .........my engine temp itself stays very cool,it's just in the fuel "boiling".
