Ok, so one of the engine techs here at work did a tune up on my car, and now the car is shaking super bad. I mean it shook a little before, but i figured it was cus it needs new tires, but now, its really bad since i drove it away from his shop. What could be wrong?

Also i noticed its leaking in 2 places, the middle towards the front and then the middle, middle.

I dont wanna take it back to him cus i found out that he doesnt really know that much.

So I am screwed, someone please help me  Sad

And yet when we go to Mexico, we get the runs. And we gotta prove to the Mexicans how Mexican we are. And we gotta prove to the Americans how American we are. We gotta be more Mexican than the Mexicans and more American than the Americans both at the same time. It’s exhausting. Nobody knows how tough it is to be a Mexican-American."

Probably left a coil unplugged most likely left a hose off from the intake or plug from mass airflow meter, and if it is leaking from the middle of the car it can be rear main seal or front transmission seal, depends what fluid it is.

the chop shop mechanic is right
probably something obvious

make sure all of these induction hose connections are seated right and not unplugged

since he changed out the spark plugs, i'd check the coils first then the other steps.

one COP on my old 99 two valve crapped out on me during the 2008 Garland Night Owl Car show at Williams stadium. The MIL shot out check engine code P0305 which was cylinder 5. You can pull COP#5 without having to remove the fuel rail. The Chiltons manual said to measure the primary terminals which read ok at 0.55ohms of resistance. Then measured the secondary terminals and a good COP should be around 5.5k ohms of resistance.. my COP measured 8.78k resistance. Bought a replacement COP from vato zone and engine missing cleared.

Yea the tires look really worn. If you can, get different tires up front balanced and aligned. The car idles fine. Sorry didn't get a chance to drive it. Does it shake when you brake?

Most likely tires, also the inner and outer tie rod ends will cause that. when you brake and the steering wheel and car shakes your rotors are gone. Caused from instant braking. For ex. car o brake! LOL!
