Corsica Has The Shakes

Q. Hi. I'm Simon from Israel. I have 1995 Chevrolet Corsica 3100 4-speeds automatic transmission (4t60e), ABS, A/C, cruise control and fuel injection. The mileage is about 106,000 miles (170,000 km).

The problem is: during driving or cruising at the overdrive gear [D] position, an about 80 kph or higher speed the car begins to shake. If I try to accelerate it shakes even harder until the shakes stops, and then it comes again.

During cruising in about 80 kph or higher speed it always shake and don't stop. I replaced the spark plugs and the wiring. What you think the problem is?

Thank you,
Simon

A. Sounds very much like a bent wheel or the tires are out of balance Simon.
