Good luck

possibly a clogged cat but most likely it is an ignition problem. If you haven't ever changed your wires or plugs its time.

[Andy H]

yeah, what blue flame said. the shaking under load is probably a misfire. I'd change plugs and wires and see if that fixes it.

[greencamaro]

i just did that about two month ago.

[greencamaro]

is there anything else you guys can think of that it might be. I just took it to my mechanic I hope it is not hole lot of money.

[Tyler]

its prolly a missfire.. shakes the whole car right? ya, prolly a missfire..


it doesnt matter if you changed them 2 months ago, or two days ago.. i changed mine one night, and the following night, two plug wires were touching, and they each burned a hole right through the insulation part of the wire...had to get brand new plug wires ...

if you didn't get an ses light then it wasn't a misfire. because your car shook makes me think it isn't a transmission problem whatsoever. buy some injector cleaner and change your fuel filter. also get the mechanic to check the fuel pump. it sounds like the car wasn't getting enough fuel/air--and that's why it shook.

Well i final got my car back & fixed. It was the o2 sensor wire. Whenever i went over a bump the wire would touch the moter mount and ground out causing it to shut off when it touched and back on again it wasnt touching. ;) i am so happy know.
