Why would my truck start jerking while I'm driving it and the temp gauge be on the H?

Make sure the radiator is not clogged on the outside. Also make sure the electric fan is working when the air is on.
These radiators have a tendency to clog on the outside.
With high miles, the radiator may be clogged inside to the point it will not flush. New ones are about $115 to $200.
