What is the best engine oil for my 1998 Mazda 626 (4 Cylinder)
It has got a mileage of 101,000 miles.

Last time I changed the oil at mechanic, I see there is a change in engine performance after that (perfornace has gone down and engine jerks often), I am not sure which kind of oil they have used.
 
i don't think that what you are describing can be related too an oil change.was he a qualified mechanic,did he repair anything else.check first off all if the level on the dipstick is correct.
 
The change you've described can't be related to engine oil. Something else that went bad close to when you changed the oil, just happenstance. Any oil with the correct viscosity is fine but while it's not necessary, it wouldn't hurt to change to a "high mileage" blend.

As for your problem, I'd check transmission fluid level to start with.
