Idle is at 8,000? Or 800?

Does it flucuate?

Well, check your sparkplug wires, at the plugs and at the distributor.

800, sorry, no, it stays the same.

At first i thought it was normal , 120k miles because I always noticed a bit of shaking, but then it was shaking like normal, like a tremble, but then it just starting shaking really bad.

edit: Checked those already.

Pull one plug wire and see if it gets worse, then put it back. Repeat for all plug wires. See if one cylinder isn't firing and go from there.

But if one cylander wasn't firing, it would rape him while accelerating. He claims only at idol.

Hell try it anyway.
