Hi,
My 1998 chevy nova car idles just a bit high in park or nuetral and you pretty much don't feel anything. As soon as you drop it in drive or reverse it vibrates or shake, not much, but I know this can be fixed. I don'r expect perfection, but. Can you help? What can I do?

thanks
mike

Determine the cause of the high idle, usually a vacuum leak, or stuck Idle Air Control valve.

The shaking is more that likely a bad motor mount, collapsed or simply worn out.
