Why does my car vibrate when idle or stopped?

Why does my car vibrate when idle or stopped?

Spark plugs, their wiring, and the coils create the voltage to ignite in each cylinder. Spent or old spark plugs become soiled from oil or carbon deposits, greatly reducing the power created from ignition. By replacing your spark plugs every 30,000 to 50,000 miles you’re ensuring a sufficient spark every time.

Why do I have a rough idle after spark plug change?

Why does my car idle at a low rpm?

Other things such as a faulty idle air control valve may cause the engine idle to drop below the normal idling RPM which may also cause the motor to shake or vibrate more than normal. This creates a loss of power that resonates throughout the motor additionally causing other problems with ignition and fuel timing.
