    Default jerking

    My car is a 1994 Honda Accord
    Just recently I have noticed that when I'm driving at lower speeds, usually first or second gear with very little pressure on the gas, my car jerks, almost as if I'm tapping the gas pedal.

    I've noticed it most driving through a playground zone and my foot is lightly applied to the gas, just enough to keep it at 30 kph, and around 2000 RPM.

    please help!

    Check your engine mounts. I know in my old car the engine mounts were worn so the engine would move and seem like the car was jerking.
