I have been driving my car around and when I hit the highway I use double the fuel and my car doesn't accelerate correctly. It also shakes a a lot when I start it upp please help me figure out my problem.

Hello,

When was the last time a tune up was performed on your vehicle? I.E. new spark plugs, Coil on Plugs (COP), air filter, fuel filter? I have included a link for you to go to below in case it has been a while since your vehicle's last tune up.
