Default Shaking while driving

When I get up around 45-50 I have a small shaking while driving like it's the motor not having enough oil or running rough. It's not the tires being unbalanced and I just changed the plneum gasket last weekend and there's plenty of oil. Also of i just slowly accelerate it stops. What y'all think it could be?

Pull the spark plugs and have a look. Sounds like you have a miss.

#8 plug tends to foul out pretty commonly, did you replace the plugs when you did the plenum?

No bent rim don't believe cat is clogged and replaced all plugs during plneum swap. I did forgot to check distributer cap and rotor though but I replaced those about a month ago bc they were messed up

Did you route your wires per the TSB in the FAQ section?
