Please help. Please what could be the problem? Car will suddenly start to vibrate while on break and engine ON, I will change the 4 spark plugs, vibration will stop. But after a while, it will start vibrating again. It never vibrates during motion/acceleration. And vibration always start when fuel always get near empty before refilling. I have noticed And when this happens, fuel usage is crazy high! As if fuel is leaking or something. Plz help |

Kaspar0v:Ur fuel filter and pump are the culprits. There's a whole lot of dirt in ur fuel tank and as such wen ur fuel begins to get low ur filter begins to encounter dem. Since U already changed the plugs and d problem hasn't gone away, time to check on ur fuel pump |

Nbotee:If that's correct after filling the tank, why does engine keep vibrate irregularly and consuming too much fuel? |

Kaspar0v:D dirt has probably damaged ur pump.. There's no harm in having dem check dat. |

Kaspar0v:Some ppl offered advice but u kept countering them. Replacing parts with new parts don't guarantee solution. You meed to find the culprit. 1. As suggested, a clogged fuel filter amd pump can make the engine run lean thereby causing that. 2. A dirty throttle body also cam cause vibration while the brake is active. 3. Dirty injectors can cause the vibration e.g misfire which new plugs might fix only for a while. Do not rule anything out. Get the car diagnosed right. Stop throwing parts. |
