Mitsubishi Repair: Car jerking and stalling, fuel supply, spark plugs


Question
03 lancer oz 5 speed....was fine until last night started jerking while i was driving it and then stalled..i can keep it from stalling by pushing clutch in and rev'n the engine. changed the plugs and wires. still will stall and very jerky right before it stalls- (imagine somone just learning how to drive a stick)...will crank back up but does take a few times for it to start. HELP

Answer
Kelly,
The problem you described is usually a result of bad spark plugs, poor ignition timing, weak fuel supply, or inadequate amount of air getting to the engine.  I would recommend getting a tune-up and replacing any regularly scheduled maintenance items.
Good luck!
