I have a 2000 Eclipse. When you start the car it idles high, up to around 2 rpm's and than slows down. Once you put the car in gear the car jerks and when you are stopped and accelerate the gas pedal, the car runs slow till it gets up to speed than it picks up. I have no idea what that could be. I know my front motor mount needs fixed cuz after I run my car for awhile I come to a stop and my engine will jump forwards or does the same when im stopped and start driving.
