Engine sputter and hesitate

84 ford 250 7.5L manual trans.

Possible causes for sputtering when shift in between gears. Had more then enough rpms to shift. When i let out on clutch engine was hesitant and sputtering like it was to low of a rpm to shift. Floored gas and hesitation cleared up within 10 to 15 seconds.

Leaky fuel injectors. Flooring the gas in frustration clears out the built up gas and the car runs okay until the next gas flood episode.
