Issue with a 2000 Mazda Protege ES, 5 spd. When driving engine will hesitate, when pressing accelerator, causing "jerking" of the car after accelerator was pressed or released. It feels like the fuel is not delivered properly. Dealer ran the diagnostics numerous times and was not able to find or fix the cause. It seems that probkem goes away when engine warms up.
