You might try a bottle of fuel injector cleaner.

Default Jerky acceleration

Thanks for your reply !
I ended up taking it into the dealership and they said it was spark plug wires.
They said that they changed them and that fixed the problem, 55,000 miles and 2 years old that describes my Suburban.
That seems to be too soon to have that problem but hey what can you do.
