When the car is idle its shaking and jerking cutting off?

There could be several reasons why your car is shaking, jerking, and cutting off when it is idling. Here are a few possible causes:

- Faulty spark plugs: Worn-out or damaged spark plugs can cause misfires, which can lead to shaking and jerking.

- Clogged fuel filter: A clogged fuel filter can restrict the flow of fuel to the engine, causing it to run lean and misfire.

- Vacuum leak: A vacuum leak can also cause misfires by introducing unmetered air into the engine.

- Dirty throttle body: A dirty throttle body can cause the engine to idle rough and stall.

- MAF sensor: MAF sensor helps regulates the fuel in engine if that get to much oil deposit it could stop up MAF causing poor engine performance

- O2 Sensor: if they fail oxygen sensors won't be able to detect how much oxygen is going thru cats or before which then computer sends more or less fuel.

*Note:- The exact cause of your car's shaking, jerking, and cutting off may be different from the ones listed above.*

*If you are not comfortable diagnosing and repairing car problems yourself, I recommend taking your car to a qualified mechanic for an inspection.*
