If your vehicle shakes and smells like gas then you have problems other than low Transmission Fluid. Shaking and fuel smell indicates that all of the fuel is not being burned properly, and the engine is not operating as it should be.

Next time, add some more detail to your question, but FIRST, check your tranny fluid level. When the transmission fluid level is low, your vehicle will start to act REAL funky and make weird noises and your question may hint at low fluid level. If it's not that, take a close look at what the fluid looks like and smells like. And then schedule for an appointment with a trusted mechanic to check out your transmission looked at. Maybe, you just need band adjustment or fluid replaced because it's old fluid and worn out.

Check the fluid. If it smells burnt, bad news. If not, change the fluid and filter. Otherwise could be something on the tranny like a shift solenoid etc. If 96 and newer, scan for codes. Most parts stores do it free.
