My corolla stops after vibrating a lot just after switching on the engine. Engine is kept switched on as long as i keep pressing the accelerator. But as soon as i take my foot off the accelerator the car starts vibrating and stops. Even if i unplug 2 of the 4 ignition plug cables, the the engine is working with heavy vibration. What's the reason for it and how can i fix this problem?

Seems like the engine is misfiring. Have you checked the spark plugs
