Shakes or Wobbles problem
1993 Isuzu Amigo 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual 180K miles

When starts in the morning I need to press the gas pedal in order to keep it on otherwise it will die, after its on for a while I could drive it but when I get a red light and or an stop I have to pump gas, I already changed the gas filter but it did not fix the problem.

Sounds likk it is missing real bad. Has it ever been tuned up?Also check for vacuum leaks on theengine, they will make ahissing sound. Yopu cancarefully spray aroung theintake area with carb cleaner, if the engine changes you have found a vacuum leak. Also check the big rubber boot from the air cleaner to the engine for any cracks, if there are any it needs to be replaced. If all ok and it shakes, have a compression test done onit to be sure the engine is good.
