O_o

when you step on the gas.....you mean while driving or while idling and free revving?

did you pop the hood to see if the motor is shaking? bad mounts. if driving are you shaking at a certain speed?

more details please.

when idleing

when it idling it doesnt shake but when u step on the gas it shakes... i did drive it down the street and it didnt shake really just the normal move on the engine when you push the peddle to the floor. when i step on it at about 3 to 4 rpms it starts to shake

wheel balancing, tire pressure, warped rotors, bad steering rack mount bushings,

easiest i guess is make sure you have appropriate tire pressure and it is balanced in both front tires.

i just drove it down the street

i just drove my car down the street and i pulled over to see if i could do a burnout and it seems like all the power is not there cuz it didnt do anything.. the car feels slugish like if i put the pedal all the way to the ground it doesnt seem like it wants to get up and go.. i had that problem before a few weeks ago i got the fuel pump replace cuz that was the problem i smell burning and see some oil or something by the injectors but im not sure i dont see no oil dripping from the car or anything?

sounds like injector to me.

if you need to pull the plenum be prepared to spend some cash to do it right.

on an unrelated note, where'd you get your new carpet from?
