My Toyota Tazz (1997) is shaking when I sometimes accelerate too fast. Almost like flooding the carb in acceleration. I don't know if the petrol isn't burning fast enough or what. Thanks

If your truck has a carbutetor the accelerator pump may have to adjusted.
Best approach is to check the general tune of the engine, plugs, wires, igntion timing, timing advance mechanismsm fuel filter etc.
If they are all ok then it may be time for carburetor maintenance/adjustments.
