check plug wire routing. There is a TSB in the faq section about it.

Check all the wire ends that go to the injectors, make sure they are on tight, and what kind of history do the injectors have new? old?

check engine light came on today when I was riding down the road and had it checked and it was the speed sensor code. would that make me have a vibration? or is that coming on because of the vibration and skipping the motor?

ok, I have this exact same issue since getting my transmission rebuilt.... vibrated only in overdrive and usually notice it around 42mph when the rpms are around 1300-1400...The whole truck shakes bad...turn off the overdrive and the issue goes away...I have no pending or current missfire codes? could it still be the wires? I have new ones to install.

When my truck was doing that trick, it was an engine miss. No codes for it either. Felt like the truck was trying to shake itself apart. I had just done cap/rotor/wires/plenum, and my problem was two plug wires in the wrong order.... fixed that, and smooth as silk.

well I replaced the wires and it still has the same issue.. I only pulled one plug but it looked new... it was a bitch to remove though... I guess thats gonna be my next step as well as the cap and rotor I just replaced 6,000 miles ago.
