Default HELP HELP HELP

ok so i started up my car today and all it does is start and shake really bad like the motor is shaking back and forth more than it should which is causing my car to shake and it has some hesitation when i push the throttle down and my exhaust sounds funny. I seriously cant figure out what it is. Please help.

Is the Check Engine Light ON?

Check for fouled spark plugs, as well as a worn or corroded distributor cap and rotor.

If it's been a long time since your plugs, wires, cap, and rotor were replaced, you might want to start there.
