Is it normal for a car to shake?

I have an old 1978 Ford ranchero and every time I turn on my car it shakes a lot but it stops after I push the gas pedal a little and only does this in park why does this happen is this normal for a classic car

Put a block of wood on a jack, and put it under the oil pan, jack the engine SLIGHTLY just to relieve pressure from the motor mounts, and see if the concern duplicates, if it doesn't, then replace your mounts

Carbs not pristine. Guarantee i can adjust that out

Sounds like a fuel delivery or vacuum issue

  • Why did some normal car models have so few made? I'm talking about like a normal car that would be sold to citizens. Like a ford or something. Where it's rare to see the car just because it didn't have that much models of it made?
  • What causes the steering wheel to shake when I'm not even moving? After replacing the steering rack in a 1999 Ford windstar, the steering wheel shakes violently when the vehicle is started. The steering wheel is uncontrollable and the vehicle can't be driven. The steering wheel actually moves lock to lock by itself. I've never seen anything like this.
  • Why does my Ford Focus shake when maintaining 70 mph? I've got a 2007 Ford Focus hatchback. My husband did an oil change on it about month ago. Since then there's a vibration. Everything feels fine until you go 70 mph. While trying to maintain the speed the whole car shakes. It feels like it is about to stall, but doesn't or at least, hasn't yet. The shaking stops when accelerating or decelerating. Its an automatic and the engine light pops on and off. It only happens while trying to maintain speed in the 69-71mph range.
  • My 2008 2 door ford focus has started to sputter and shake.what could the problem be? At first it started shaking then a couple days later, it started to sputter. I want to take it in but scared they will charge me a fortune on other things that aren't really the problem. Any advice?
