the engine feels like it wants to stall while sitting at a stop sign or while in reverse stopped waiting to get out in to the traffic also I sometimes have a bit of a jerk forward when first taking off it feels like maybe there is not enough fuel getting to the engine ..I just replaced all 4 sparks as I had a power problem I couldnt get up any speed this has been solved any help would be appreciated....

    Diagnose the issue, in that check for codes, inspect wear and tear of the tune-up parts, filters, cleanliness of the throttle body etc. Do the basics first.
