over the past 4-5 days my car has been feelin weird like if i press the gas, release then press again hard it sounds like i hit something, and even if i am in park or neutral i rev the car rocks back and forth. last night it was in park, and my friend leaned against it and it rolled about 3" back and forth. anyone know whats going on?

also theres been a leak but i dont know what it is, i put a white cloth under my car overnight and there was a spot about the size of an old 50 cent coin, reddish or orangy in color. thinking tranny fluid? maybe power steering fluid because i have no power steering and no money for a new pump, but maybe its the tubes?
 
check your front motor mount.. thats sounding as your problem to #1. and about the leak. check all your fluids.. mostly the caps try the tranny cap that little rubber plug on the bottom of the tranny... or see where its actually coming from... next time raise it up on some jacks let it sit over night and in the morning look directly up where the marks are left..
