Why is your car losing power and jerking after you drive it for a while?

Change the gas filter. We have a 2001 Ford Focus that was doing the same thing. Let it set for awhile and go some further until it starts again? Our fuel filter is underneath by the gas tank, back by the RR floorboard. A good tire company usually has a decent mechanic who can stick it on a rack and change it in 5 minutes. Otherwise you'll be crawling around on the ground!
