My 'check engine' light comes on while I am driving and the car jerks, or if it happens while the car is idling the car stalls. It the light is on I have to shift before the RPM 's get to 3500 or the car shakes and looses power. When the light is off the car runs fine. I can only drive about 10 miles before the light comes on. The light comes on either when I start the car or shortly after everytime I drive the car.
