My nissan recently just started to act up. I left the gas station and my motor started to shake. I continued to drive as the motor shook. It only shakes when im waiting for a light or a stop sign. Its more of a puttering feel. It only occurs when im stopped or when I start to accelerate. Please help me!

This could be bad gas. Have you run through that tank of gas yet? If not, get your gas from somewhere else and see if it still sputters.

If you haven't, try using a bottle of heat. If it still sputters after running through that tank of gas, get back with me and we'll proceed from there.
