Here's my "dumb question" for this particular weekend--my '86 240 engine shakes at idle. It's not too bothersome though I would prefer that it run smoother. I'm assuming, given my limited knowledge, that this might be caused by worn engine mount(s) or improper valve clearance. (I just had what was a "major tune up" (new wires, plugs, d-cap, etc.). I assume they checked the valve clearances--however, am not sure.) Any other idea? Other than the shaking, the car runs just fine! Thanks again guys for your help. Heidi the Fix It Mom
