Unhappy 89 Caprice Issue

I have an 89 caprice 305 tbi. The problem is after about 30 to 45 minutes of driving it hesitates during takeoff and braking. It stutters until i stomp the gas then it seems to jump in gear and drives fine until i start to slow down. Anyone know of any possible solutions?

Fuel filter, dirty injectors, IAC valve, vacuum leaks, take your pick. It's likely one of these.

1989 has throttle body fuel injection, not a carb.
