What Causes a Car to Jerk When Driving?
1 Answers
The reasons why a car jerks when driving are as follows: 1. Excessive carbon buildup in the throttle body, fuel injectors, and intake manifold. Many faults are caused by carbon buildup, and some vehicles may experience jerking due to carbon deposits. It is recommended to regularly clean carbon deposits. 2. Poor fuel quality leading to incomplete combustion. 3. Faulty spark plugs, ignition coils, etc., causing misfires. This requires inspection and repair at a service center to avoid further safety hazards. 4. Poor performance of the engine ignition system, such as weak ignition or intermittent misfiring.
