why does car "jerk" when slowing down or accelerating?
What is your question?
Had head gasket changed because car overheated. Also changed spark plug wires, but now every time you slow down and let your foot off the gas pedal the car jerks. Even when you go to accelerate it jerks.

You could have a bad motor mount. Since you just had the head work it's possible a motor mount was left loose. Alex
