The car will run but after a few seconds in gear it dies and doesnt want to start or run for awhile? Also when I put it in gear the engine mounts hit the hood, ive changed the engine mounts.

To find out what's wrong check if its fuel or spark problem do below basic stuffs

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
