My car jerks on aceleration, I have changed plugs, wires, had entire electrical checked, wit no problems, first gear is fine, but after shiftin to any other gear, when I try to acel it jerks shutters, repeadly, as long as I only touch my gas just enough to get the RPMS to move it is fine with little jumps, but under normal acel it jerks so bad I lose speed, I have no ideal what it is or could be, have changed oil, I have no leaks, an everytime it starts jerking the check engine light pops on but after I cut the car off an strat it back bout 99% of the time the light cuts off once in a while it stays on but always cut off after that

Check engine light:

Have the computer scanned for code/s-you have a problem within the engine management system that caused the CEL to turn on-This is your starting point of diagnosis, finding out what's going on.
