change your air filter and get spray cleaner from autozone spray it down the main airflow tubes then check your valve cover gasket i bet they are leaking the oil drips down into the spark plug chambers and causes mis fires and check your timing belt that should do it other than a regular tune up....

Why your 1998 Honda civic ex shakes when idle?
A 1998 Honda Civic shakes when it idles usually due to worn engine mounts. Open the hood and check the engine mounts. See if they are either cracked or brittle. Since the mounts can not absorb the vibrations it will be felt in the cabin.
