    Whats up everyone! I am a new member to tacoma world and i just purchased my first tacoma. i've had it for 5 months now and man are these things fun to drive! i came across a problem with my truck though :( when i begin to accelerate my truck starts to shake at speeds from 10-20mph then goes away and starts shaking again when i am coming to a stop. i have no idea what is and don't feel like spending a whole lot of money on fixing what could be a small problem. can anyone help and have me back on the road enjoying my beast once again!!

    Have tried the easy fix of rotating your tires? Making sure there's no mud on the inside of the rims?

    yeah, the shaking seems to be coming from my engine not the motor mounts either.

    BUCKLE UP! It makes it harder for Aliens to pull you out of your Truck.
    I'd run fuel system cleaner to start. Check all the vacuum lines are not brittle or cracked and replace as necessary. Spray a shot of Radio Shack color tv tuner cleaner in the MAF to clean the wire. Change the plugs and maybe the wires, too. Make sure the MAF ducting is tight. Engines don't like vacuum leaks. Could be an ignition coil giving out, too.

    Is it the infamous (and common) 2nd Gen take-off shudder?

    Coil overs do not have traditional plug wires.
