low on gas low on power

I have noticed that the less gas I have in my tank the less power I seem to get out of my car (2000 ford escort zx2) it seems to shift harder (its an automatic) and 'pops' into gear when i start it up and put it into gear. (It jumps instead of a smooth transition. as soon as i fill it up with a full tank it goes away until I get low on gas. i can notice it around half a tank and it is very apparent at a quarter and less.

Any ideas? Or is this just normal.
