1995 Beretta Z26, Shakes at 60mph

1995 CHEVROLET BERETTA

My Beretta had two ignition coils that were burnt. I replaced the two igition coils along with the wires that were attached to the coils. I checked one of the spark plugs and it was fine. For now the burning smell is gone but I still have a problem where on the highway at 60mph the car shakes. I brought the car in before because it shook badly when I hit the brakes and I had my rotors cut and new pads put on so that is fine. But now the shaky problem exists along with sometimes when the car is at a redlight it will act like it wants to shut off but it doesn't. I have a new battery, the alternator is perfect, the starter is perfect.

What do I have to do to eliminate the shaking at 60mph and the feeling of wanting to shut off when waiting at a red light?

For the shaking, check the motor mounts, that was the first thing to go out on my 88 beretta. If those are good, check to ur alignment and balance of tires.
As for the wanting to stall. I dont really know but check ur fuel pump. The pressure might be ur problem or maybe u need a new fuel filter.

Check for cracks, play, loose bolts. Anything u wouldnt consider "normal." I'm not sure where they are on ur year of car and im not a tech. Just trying to give pointers on things ive also dealt with. W/ my '88, they were to the right and left of the motor near the wheel wells on the frame and they had a lot of play. One was pretty worn out looking and the bolts were stripped. Hope that gives u an idea of what to look for. If they look fine it might be something else entirely but this is the most advice I can give right now sorry :P

I have a 1994 Beretta V6 not the Z26 thought. I also have a problem with the violent shaking at 60mph or above. Did you ever find out what was wrong and why it was doing that? Also if you have roughly how much was it to fix the problem?
Thanks
