You could be hurting it,have you serviced it lately,meaning plug,s wire,s?
yes we did very recent they changed the wires also
Did it run this way before replacing the plug,s and wire,s ?
yes, it had issue starting but not to the point the engine must shake to start. maybe i have a loose belt or something .
No lose belt wont do this,could be bad fuel in tank,or weak fuel pump,meaning not getting good fuel pressure at fuel rail,or could be a bad fuel injector.
If your engine light is on,go have it scanned,will give you and ides of the issue you are having.
theres no engine light , but ill get it checked anyways i dont want any more damage in it if its hurting it. thank u so much for all the advice it helps alot.
