My 93 960 has a MINUTE hesitation around 45 mph, only if you try to hold that speed by not moving throttle. This hesitation is only a split second, and only between 40 and 50 mph. Aggressive throttle use, and my baby cruises through the gears flawlessly. Any body have any ideas? Throttle Position Sensor?

It may not be a hesitation, sounds like the torque convertor lock up. Usually with an easy throttle seems to lock around 45 mph. When was the last time the trans fluid was changed? It it synthetic? Just a guess here but that is where I would start looking.
