1st gear @ 20mph, 2nd gear @ 30mph, accelerates nicely to these points, then abruptly hesitates as if 'bogging' down. Have rebuilt throttle body, replaced: oxygen sensor, fuel pump, replaced leaking fuel line, AIC, TBS, and replaced EGR valve. Don't have tachometer, but hesitation seems to occur at same rpm points. Thank you.

You may have got a slug of water in the gas, try some additive and see if it will clear up. If it dosent best do a fuel pressure test, i don't know why but pumps have been known to go out just after a fill up.

What size engine do you have in it? And, how many miles on it?? Well, I guess it really doesn't matter. At first thought it sounds like you are experienceing a fuel problem, and changing the throttlebody didn't solve your problem. I would start by looking and checking my fuel delivery system. The fact that you had to spray gas into the throttlebody tells me that fuel is not getting there. I would start with the least expensive thing to fix first. Check your gas filters. These are often , OFTEN, overlooked as a sorce of problems, and are rarely changed and often overlooked, and are the problem alot of the time. If that dosen't cure your problem check your fuel pump. Make sure it is delivering the proper pressure. I would bet your problem would be solved, but if it's not then next I would check the electrical components of your fuel system.

do you have any check engine lights on? If you do, that is the first thing I would have checked. It does sound like plugged EGR, vacuum leak, or bad TPS

I would check fuelpump pressure as I have encountered same symptoms as you desscribed in your complaint.aaaaaaaaaaaaaaAlso check for vacuum leaks while your at it
