hey lately ive been having this prob with my manual tr,
well when i drive normal my car is fine, it boots actually, but when i go into 4th and 5th (when the revs are low in the 4th and 5th gear when u change) i get a weird kinda pulling or like a kinda jerky feel, only slight though not that big a jerk, but it makes my car shudder a little bit when in the low revs of those gears, under 2500 revs and also under 3500 in 5th gear.
car seems a little bit hotter sometimes.......
havent changed the oil for a while, neither the park plugs, but i have the leads, and changing the coolant and doing a radiator flush this weekend.....????
any advice if anyone has the same problem and what it is, or anyone know what it could be, it was never there before..........

hmm I'm not sure. I would try changing the oil and the little things and go by a process of elimination. See what it's like after changing the oil, then if its still no good see what it's like after changing the spark plugs. Then you will know if there is a more substantial problem.

Sounds like a fuel supply or ignition problem,
Try your fuel filter and clean the injectors.
Also check your dict cap and button as well.
If low revs adn light foor also have your TPS setting checked
