Does it shudder or shake when you load the motor while driving it? I just went through a miss a couple days ago after installing a new motor. Turns out my UVC gasket wasn't completely plugged in, and wasn't sending voltage to one injector. You can take the IDM out and Ohm out each injector. I would start there. Its not hard to do. And this is if its throwing the "P1316 IDM fault code".


Refer back to this ^


Check your Undervalve Cover Gaskets for a loose or faulty connection.

If you haven't rewelded the x member then that would cause shaking. But it might even shake with it rewelded just cause it's not factory
