Tires, spark plugs, and wires are good. It is 97 3.8 camaro, it used to shake sometimes when going up hill now it shakes when accelerating semi-fast, it is good when i'm at a red light and when accelerating slowly, I am thinking it is a sensor but am not sure, please help

Does it seem like the engine is missing or could it be a bad universal joint?

Yeah it seems to be the engine, when I press the gas pedal it shakes but stops doing it as it shifts into the last (fifth) gear

If there is no light, I would start by looking for vacuum leaks and checking fuel pump pressure.

Ok "Thank YOU", i'll check that out, I saw a way on youtube of how I can check for the vacuum leak but i'm not sure how to check the fuel pump pressure, but it's almost new so I don't think it would be that
