Hi, I have this problem for a month now. When I take my foot of the gas in gear except for fifth and sixth gear the car jerks back and forth and the rpm bounces. The car is a manual and no check engine light is on.

Here is a guide to help you step by step with instructions in the diagrams below to show you how on your car. For your car the fuel pump can be accessed through a tap door so you don't need to drop the tank :)

This video shows the job being done on a similar car but the process is the same.

When a fuel pump goes out it can do so one of two ways either it can quit and stop working or it can fail intermittently causing the engine to stall or not start.
