Hesitation and a jerk when pressing the gas.

Hesitation and a jerk when pressing the gas.
I have a 2002 3.8 camaro. A month ago my car started misfiring while I was driving. I got it home and changed all the spark plugs, wires and fuel filter. That didn't help at all. I took it to this guy and he said it was the center coil pack. I believe that is the 2 and 5 one. Well I changed that and that didn't fix it. It was still throwing the random misfire code. So he went further and say that it was a bad ICM. So he changed that and it fixed it. The code went away and it was running great. Then I noticed that when I first press the gas it jerks. Then I press it in more and it's fine. When I get it up to 2500 rpms and I try to keep it at a constant speed it will start to hesitate. But when I press it in more its fine. The SES came back on too. It was showing an O2 code. It was bank 1 sensor 1 and bank 2 sensor 1. So I got those and changed it and it took the code away but it is still doing the same thing. I am not a mechanic and I don't really know a whole lot about cars. I really need some help on this. Thanks.

Try cleaning the MAF too... Any autoparts store should have the spray cleaner specifically for MAF's. Remove the MAF, spray it REALLY well inside, let dry, and then reinstall it.
