So I decided to try to get it back to the house from where I was. It was about 15 miles tops.......anyways it started jerking while I was on the highway and hit about 60. So I backed off and it did ok until I got in stop and go traffic. Every time starting off from a stop light I would have to ease on the gas other wise it would just jerk and once it got up to about 35 it would start jerking again. It didn't overheat and it wasn't smoking or anything else.....just the light and the jerking. All I've been able to find online in regards to this is anything from a simple Fuel filter to the transmission. I was more or less just wondering what would cause it to do this? And would it be something that I could easily fix or a costly repair?
