    You can play with the values and come up with the right ones much faster then using formulas.

    You can use analog reading to speed up and down the motor for the time you need.
    You need a resistor for detecting motor current anyway.

    If your analog reading is high, then slow down the motor, and if low then speed up the motor.
    You just do it for 2 seconds as you need.
    Thank you for the answer.
    Analog reading is what I will do if it is not possible (or reasonable/reliable) to do the same without disturb a PIC chip for this task.
    To drive the motor, I have in mind to use the logic type mosfet RFP30N06LE for this kind of application. Do you think it is a good choice?
    I thought that a fast recovery diode for this kind of application (if memory is still good) should be a BYV28-200. Do you think is a good choice too or you have some better idea?

    Thanks in advance.
