Engine Mechanical problem
2004 Chevy Malibu 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

on my malibu classic 2.2 the engine shakes and its very weak and after a while it will shut off. At first i thought it was the coil so i replaced it and it didnt do anything... now i think its the timing... how is the timing set for this car? or what else do you think it could be?

if it's shaking then it's probably missing on a cylinder or there is a mount or something broke. have a pro look at it....
