Default question!!!

the car has 102k on it. every now and then when im sitting at a light for a while (30 secs or so) i'll get this hesitation and the rpm's will drop a bit. almost like a miss or something. you can definitely feel it when it does this. but doesn't do it all the time. what should i look for? any input would be greatly appreciated

Maybe one of these:

fuel filter = replace it

dirty injectors = bottle of sea foam (1/2 bottle to a half tank of gas)
