check you fuel pump and fuel filter could be trash in both

Also (they are going to say something to me about this) check the throttle position sensor. Well, you can't really check it, just consider it.

yeah the tps could have something to do with it. same symptoms my car had when the tps went out.

Sounds like bad gas almost. Or a clogging cat. I drove my truck to the exhaust shop with the back tires squealing on the pavement because the truck was jerking so hard.
