Default Escort RS Turbo Jerky.....

So started the escort after it had been under cover for 3 weeks.

Started up fine and drove it to the petrol station. After about 30 minutes i put my foot down and gave it some to clear through.

However now, when i just have my accelerator half way down doing anything from 1mph - 60mph it jerks. But if i just accelerate by putting my foot down from 1mph - any top end mph it doesnt jerk.

So i was on the motorway doing 75 - 100ish and it wasnt jerking but as soon as i came off the motorway it started jerking again when maintaining a low speed.

Since i started it its done 60miles...

Could it just need a good run or is it another problem?
