it can be alot of different things your timing chain can be going bad causing your timing to be off which causes your valves to bend, also your starter can be bad it you here a clicking noise, and if your cars "stalling/jerking" at 65 mph, your MAF(mass air flow) can be clogged/dirty, or you just might need a tune up

try checking the main alternator fuse that might be the problem i had a similar prblem before and it turned out to be the fuse that was burned out but not completely so
so i still had power flowing but noy like it had too..

umm lets see shithead well if your timingchain is going bad that is going to result in inaccurate timing which will cause your valves to come out at the wrong time which will cause the piston to bend them
