Is the idle speed too low?

Is the engine misfiring or out of time?

Are the motor mounts shot?

idk....how do i check these things

boost and bass

1. looking at your dash
2. listening with your ears.
3. pulling that little lever with a car on it and the hood open, opening the hood and looking at the mounts in the rear, upper and lower left and right sides

If the above checks out. Then It might be a wheel bearing.

Wheel bearings don't shake, they growl, and they don't make any noise even if their completely shot, unless the car is in movement.

Your best bet is a miss-fire probably stacked on top of shot motor mounts.

Check to see if you have ignition and fuel being delivered to the combustion chamber. If one is missing from the equation then you have your answer.

Also if you can physically move the engine on its mounts then I would suggest a new set.

Has the car always been doing this? If it has, maybe the previous owner used stiff mounts for the swap.

i had messed up an axle last time i pulled my tranny and didnt know it until i got everythign back together. sounds kinda liek what your describing. when i would start to move i would kinda feel a bump through the steering wheel and the car would kinda vibrate and shake at normal driving speeds

Compression test..see if you're runnin on 3.

Balancer shaft still there? some people delete'em to save a belt.

You just contradicted yourself there. But not the point.

If he was missing "spark" or fuel then his engine wouldn't run at all.

Keep studying in school please.

The problem doesn't sound like an issue with the engine running poorly. It's a physical problem such as axles or joints etc. Possibly motor mounts but doubtful if it only happens with turns. Its something happening when the weight shifts and puts more pressure on a component.

turned out i had to bad cylinders

waaBAAH

glad you found out about the missfire

Ok. Fine. My bad. I misread the post. It could happen to anyone. But thanks for taking the time to try talk down to me. I appreciate it. And if you weren't on Wyotecher's nuts so hard you would realize that he was not right either. But nice try.

Bottom line. OP, glad you found the issue, sorry for misreading your post and not being able to help you.

Well then you better check your memory. Find the thread where you argued with ME.

The only reason I said wheel bearings was because I misread the original post. So no need to try to keep proving me wrong. ALL of my suggestions are now void due to my mistake.
