I bought the car with some engine problems. When in the lower RPMs and with the gas slightly pressed, the engine starts to shudder and the car shakes. However, I have no problem with speed, I just have to punch it a little harder in order to get going.

The guy I bought it from seems to think that it might be a coil. The car has 175600 miles on it. It has just been tuned up, so there are new spark plugs and wires. For the most part the engine is pretty tight. As a result of the engine problems, the car doesn't seem to get very good mileage.

Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,

Welcome!!!

Try a full tune up (plugs, wires, and coils)

it may be a fuel injector

 

welcome to the party. try a tune up like bad said. lets us know how is turns out.

 

Yep same here, welcome to the forum, post up some pic's when you can.

 

Welcome to the forums, post some pics when you get a chance. I agree, a tune up is in order. Tune-ups are typically more than just the wires and plugs. Do an oil change and all the filters, including the fuel filter. Your timing may be slightly out of whack as well. The symptoms you describe can generally be solved with a thorough tune up.

 

Welcome to the forums lets see what it looks like atleast, and yes make sure it get a total tune up like the cpl said let us know ow it goes.
