My 1999 Isuzu Trooper has problems starting. Sometimes it will start but then shuts off right away... Then sometimes it will start but it feels like it wants to shut down, until it gets completely started. Every now and then it will start as normal with no problems... But normally has the above problems on a daily basis. Today we noticed when we got in the freeway, it started jerking as it drove but just a little and it seemed like the car was forcing itself to move forward. PLEASE HELP!!!!! I don't know what it can be. I did a tune up on it and changed the air filter, oil filter, fuel filter, and changed the oil and put brand new top of the line spark plugs but nothing has changed.

Clean out the idle air control valve and test the throttle position and manifold absolute pressure sensors-
