engine studder
 
I have a 96 1.5 and when I come to a stop the car shakes pretty bad. I did a tune up and... nothing! This is very annoying, does any one know what is causing the problem?

Have you replaced your spark plugs yet???

hope that helps.

ehh, my fault, last time my engine was stuttered i just had to replace the spark plugs and those ignition wires.

could be a few things.
 
You can try adjusting your Idle, could be too low. What does your tachometer say when your stopped? also try one tank of a higher octane gas, or get some injector cleaner. I had a tercel with the same thing, but better gas stopped it. But it could be the injectors are filthy, but then you'd notice it on the highway also. Good luck.
