today i was driving my car and out of nowhere it started shaking like, kind of shake that u get from an old car, and then my car would not run right, like i will step on the gas and it felt like it was held back so i brought it home and i checked almost everything with my dad, after that we change the spark plugs and still, tomorrow i'm changing my fuel filter. I don't know what's going on, somebody help.

You'll need a gauge to check either. One fuel specific gauge and one vacuum specific gauge.

For fuel you tap into the schrader valve, for vacuum you tap into any vacuum line coming off the upper intake
