Shifter stick kicks..

I have a fresh new problem (annoying) My camaro has lost some power due to msd unplug but thats not the problem the real missing power is when im at a stop or red light even while driving sometimes...We i take off my shifter give a "KICK" Example: Gaz ....Bang! even when its shifts it give a small kick but the big kick is when im stop then push the gaz...When i push more than half it kicks when i barely push its ok..Fells like the drivetrain is lose or something ...cause when i hit medium size pot holes you hear something under the car bounce around i did a basic check to see if any lose NOTHING!!????Was told by a old friend its "KICK DOWN SHIFT" ?? was it that anyway..
Ive lost power because of this kick ive never had a Civic come that close to my rear end before...Thanks in advance..

P.S, its a 4 speed auto (OD)

Most likely a broken trans mount, verry common on these cars. Put a jack on the tailshaft of your trans and it will probably lift right up off the mount.

Slap your friend upside the head. You have a 700R4 which doesnt have a kickdown, rather a Throttle Valve cable. Somewhat the same thing but not.

its easy

all you need is a new trans mount. you can get one at auto zone for pretty cheap. just get a jack and put the car on stands. take off the cross memeber and unbolt the broken mount and replace. its really easy, shouldnt take more than an hour at most.
