  The beam longitudinal jitter is fatal not only for the electron beam performance but also for the positron yield in routine operation of the Beijing Electron Positron Collider II (BEPCII) linear accelerator (Linac). Practically, longitudinal jitter has been observed many times which decreased the beam performance. We simulated the electron gun longitudinal jitter effect by PARMELA software in bunch capture process and analyzed its results about beam performance including average energy, energy spread, emittance and longitudinal phase of reference particle. We adjusted the electron gun trigger time during one cycle without changing other parameters. The percentage difference between maximum and minimum of average energy, energy spread, emittance and longitudinal phase of reference particle was 11.3%, 42%, 98% and 6.4%, respectively. It is observed and analyzed that gun trigger time longitudinal jitter is fatal for maintaining good beam performance. This analysis also gives a salutary lesson to any other longitudinal jitter which can affect the beam bunching in pre-injector .
