So I'm sure now what it is. Broken motor mount. I know it was previously suggested and should have checked better. From a stop the front drivers side lifts up and slams back down hard as of the last few days. I knew exactly what to check....the left engine mount. Jacked the car up and put it on stands and lifted the engine with a jack. The mount is completely cracked and separated. I think there was just too many problems that compounded the WOT problem. Thanks to everyone.
