It could be a number of things. But, I would start with the Mass Air Flow(MAF) Sensor. That's what happened with my '96 Suburban. When you open the hood. It's located in between the two coil hoses that run from your air filter to the motor. Start up the engine and pull out the plug. If the engine changes idle then it's probably not it. But, if it does could be the source of the problem.

What causes your 99 subaru outback to shake when you accelerate?
Thankfully mine does not shake, thanks for asking. This is really not enough information to diagnose the problem. Does it shake the same every time or does it not shake or shake less sometimes? Is the "check engine" light on? Is there a speed where the shake is more pronounced? Does it have to be full throttle acceleration or does it shake under light acceleration too? Is there a noise accompanying the shake? If you accelerate around a corner is the shake any different? Left or right turn make a difference?

The wheel will be stuck or will shake the engine. if you put the spacer that attaches to the CV joint on back wards it will be hard to turn. there is a wrong way and right way to put that spacer on.

Why would your cars engine shake after you kill the engine?
Because it's not yet "dead". An engine is designed to turn at a minimum amount of RPMs under that level the engine is not balanced and shakes. For the brief period after you shut off the engine the cylinder chambers are not getting the optimal amount of fuel for proper combustion until they get no fuel and the engine stops.
