engine shaking problem solved

special thanks to "ticktock" and "kwalsh".............
the engine shaking was finally pin-pointed to a deteriorated intake manifold gasket around the #1 abd #2 cylinder....... i re-torqued all the bolts and cleaned the areas and applied some red gasket maker (quick fix but will replace gasket later), and the "shaking" went away the next morning, the idle is now smooth, well, i now have a new: TP switch; IAV (idle valve); FPR, the gasket was the cause!! thanks again for the valuable info!! good day
