It sounds like one of the clutches is hanging up. Get it to your Ford dealer and have them do a transmission flush with filter change ASAP. See if they recommend full synthetic fuid for this tranny. It's going to be cheaper that a transmission rebuild.

Your 2000 Lincoln continental keeps jerking?

Not sure if its the same design, but on my 1998 Continental the jerking was caused originally by a few of the individual coils going out. These are found on my vehicle right on the plug that attaches to the spark plug. That is, one sits right on top of each plug. Replacing these (about $65 each as I recall) was pretty simple. Of course, later on a similar jerking occurred which turned out to be the transmission. Ford replaced it. Hopefully, your problem stems only from the mini-ignition coils.
