when i speed up after braking, it feels like it doesn't catch and then it jumps forward. i'd say it's the 1st to 2nd transition, but it's an automatic so i have no idea).
Check your transmission fluid -- it is likely low. Watch to see if you have a leak too. You should be able to do this yourself (check the manual for where to access).
my dear future father in law suggested we change the spark plugs,
If the mileage with e-85 was really bad you may have fouled plugs as a result: this too is an easy thing to do, the biggest problem is usually not having a sparkplug socket.
Enjoy.

Re: update
don't forget to change the filter and to have them look for metal bits (from parts disintegrating)
