My 2001 Nissan Pathfinder shakes while idle. The fuel pump was replaced. Nothing changed. Any ideas?


Could be a bunch of things: a bad motor mount, Clogged fuel filter, bad sensor, worn out Spark plugs and wires. The list goes on. If the check engine light is on get the codes checked. If you don’t have the know how and knowledge to fix it. It’s best to take the truck to a shop.

Sorry jameson_221 that is an electronically controlled idle. The only way that can be adjusted Manually is with a computer, special cable, and a special program. Not beating on you just Informing.

    Is it idling to low? If it is you might just need to adjust the idle speed

    the problem not in fuel pump , its related to the fuel injection , which are not able to produce the fuel at best , so clean the fuel injection
