When first acceleration begins the car seems to be missing. It also seems to get to a high rpm before changing gears when going from 1st to second gear. At speeds about 30 mph it runs fine and sounds fine. What could this be?

Hi enterecom,

Is the Check Engine Lamp indicating?

It could be a fault with the spark plugs or related parts.
