Jerking - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #63524 5 posts Started by freddymak18
Well my car seems to be jerking slightly just after I start up my car. It does so when I speed up and when I'm at a steady pace. After about 8-10 minutes of driving, it goes away....

I was told that I need to warm up the car before I start driving, but I do... and the ride still continues to jerk right after I start up.

Any ideas/help, guys?

how high are you going in revs 3K? just because the engine temp is slightly up doesn't mean the oil is warm (most likly it will still be cold)

maybe dirty spark plugs?

what engine is it? I had bad jerking for my 3s and v6 due to a bad afm.

yeah just before 3k it starts up... well i idle for about 8-10 minutes before start up... temp on cluster goes up to about a quarter.

i'm driving a 2.2L 5sfe
this happened to me when i advanced my timing, it was to much and it did the same exact thing. But after its warmed up it didnt do it. Maybe check the timing?
