1999 Pontiac Grand Prix accelerating problems

The car tends to jerk forward when accelerating from a stand still but it doesn't do it all the time, it sometimes will do it when accelerating to a higher speed from like 40-55 mph as an example but the problem does go away after a few seconds. There is no check engine light but does any one have any ideas on what I should check or look for, if you need any additional info just tell me I'ill get it to you.
