If it's shaking a lot while idling, the timing is probably off, or it's running too rich, which means you may have a failing sensor. Does it run file except at idle, and does it come off idle fairly cleanly without any hesitation, bogging, etc.?

Re: Help me! Pleeeeeeease!!!!
I WILL NEVER SELL THE CAR.
When I give it gas it's fine....
Here's what happens... I start it with no problem( only a little ticking in the head, needs valve adjustment)
It idols at about 1100( warming up) drops to 600-800 ( when warmed up) then the whole car starts shaking.
I was runing it today and it droped to about 500rpm, turned on headlights and drops to about 300rpm then goes back up to 500-700rpm. Doesn't bog out or anything when I give it gas.

my old DA use to do something similar, and damn near everone ive been in with shot mounts is the same.
As for the dropping idle, check your grounds. Is the car 5 speed or auto?
