wv jetta 3 jerking when driving normal speed of 120

Thank you so much for you reply, i was on my way from Jhb to mpumalanga and it started to jerk, the rev count clock was going up and down by the time it jerks, I was driving on the N4 by that time and it stopped it could start any more. I was helped by my friend.I used my friend's distributor and it started. I bought the new one but it did not working, so i bought the small orange thing that you put in the distributor ( lottery ), and I have put it in the old distributor so it started and it didn't jerk any more but now it's jerking again. so i really don't understand what can i do now, should I get a new distributor and change plugs or should I change the dieframe as well ??

You help in this matter will highly be appreciated

Regards

Dericks

Dericks, sounds like you are saying that it did okay with your friends distributor. Then you replaced the rotor but kept your old distributor cap. I would suggest that you replace the cap as well. Also consider new spark plugs and spark plug wires.

I have the answer, mine did the same for months on end, I replaced every filter, plug and wire and air flow things I could think of and in the end it was only the engine speed sensor that had to be replaced. Once that was done she drives like a dream again.....
