Icon3 My car kinda jerks..

When I take off...my car kinda drives a little sluggish, and jerks a little bit but not too hard like it's not getting fuel.
Should I start with my fuel filter??
It does good when I use fuel injector cleaner..
but after it runs out it goes back to driving crappy.

and i've replaced my starter 3 different times. it's like it's not getting enough fuel. tomorrow i'm going to try replacing my fuel filter i guess and see if that could be it because it has been a while since i've changed it and it was like 40,000 miles ago so it's probably clogged. haha.

What do your injectors look like? You could try soaking them in gas for a bit to try to clean them.
