The missing happens only at idle speed. There is a mild shuddering that happens upon acceleration up to about 40 mph. The car runs beautifully on the highway.

Best low cost cure/check is to start with a near empty tank, and replace ALL the hoses, starting at the tank. also get the oring and check/clean the tank strainer. ANY fabric covered hoses are suspect, as these are notorious for leaking air in but no fuel out. Any wet fabric denotes a bad hose. While you are there, replace the return line hoses from the injectors, unless you did that within the past 6-12 months. is the missing worst at idle or high speed? Checking/replacing the hoses and adjusting the valves should have been the first steps. I have had the transfer pump cause hard starting and rough running at all speeds. If it leaks, put on a new one. Would I see air bubbles anywhere?

Could this be creating an air leak that would result in stumbling and stalling? The hand pump could indeed be creating an air leak.
