How is it running? Check for vacuum leaks. It might be bad motor mounts. You'll need a helper for this. You stand by the outside of the fender, helper sits in the driver seat. Firmly set the parking brake. Start the car, stand on the brake pedal, put the transmission in gear, and gently give it gas. The engine should NOT rock at all. If it does, bad engine mount.
