my 97 prelude jerks when u drive at low speeds in gear -- more so in second gear. ive noticed the clutch 'grrab point' is quite high.

ive changed the spark plugs and distributer cap and it seems to be a bit better but is still occurs.

any ideas? could it be the clutch? spark plug wires? anything else i should check?

Hi mobility19, Welcome to 2carpros and TY for the donation

Could be the clutch slipping,

Inspect and test all the following listed below and get back with some testing results we start here

Oxygen sensors.
Catalytic converter.
Fuel injectors dirty/sticking.
Mass airflow sensor/Airflow meter.
Throttle position sensor.
Manifold absolute pressure sensor.
EGR Valve
Fuel pressure regulator leaking or defective fuel pump.
False air leakage.
Fuel contamination.
Foul/defective spark plugs.
Open spark plug wires.
Ignition coil/Coil packs defective.
Incorrect ignition timing.
Cap and rotor.

Note:If it doesn't apply disregard.
