Looking for smooth Idle
my '98 maxima keeps shaking all time. not that hard of a shake, but still shakes a little bit when i'm on park,drive, or neutral. not that much on neutral, but still a little noticeable. i just got a tune-up so that can't be it. i know there could be many things that make the car shake, but just to narrow down on what it could be, it starts shaking after it warms up. meaning if i just started the car it wouldn't shake until it went well under 1000 rpm (when it starts it's usually a little over) and the temperature of the car went well over "C". please help me out, i don't want to feel any vibration on my brake pedal or my steering wheel when im idle on drive, neutral or park. thank you!

lol cleaned mine out last weekend (had high idle problems before that) and I'm having this problem since then. Idle is fine is neutral (~750) but goes down to 600-700 in drive and car starts hesitating - will have to check for air leaks tomorrow
