Could be a few reasons but most likely a vacuum leak or the power brake booster
is defective... that is to say if you keep the car serviced... if not then it could be anything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It could need a tune up, sparkplugs, distributor cap, rotor, and sparkplug wires. If it's old enough (1980) it could need a set of points !

Why does your 95 eclipse shake at times when you stop?
You may have warped brake rotors. Eclipse's have a problem with that. Do you feel it in the brake pedal? You mite need a tune up If you are at a complete stop when you feel it you probably have a bad motor or tranny mount. If you are moving and you feel it when you hit the brakes it is probably warped rotors.

Why would a 2000 Subaru Legacy Outback Wagon steering wheel and front end vibrate and shake when you hit the brakes while going down a hill in the mountains?
Sounds like your brake rotor are warped, a brake shop should be able to turn then (smooth them out) for you if there not too bad. do you feel a little shake at during normal breaking? if so then that could be the problem, but because your were going down hill it take more force to slow down so you feel it more.

What could cause your engine to shake when you shift to reverse on a automatic transmission?
It's difficult to get a feel for what you mean when you say your engine shakes. Do you mean a regular shake? If that's the case it might be a bad valve, sparkplug, plug wire or injector. If you mean that the engine moves quite a distance when you put it in reverse, but then comes back, it could be a motor mount. Please feel free to send an e-mail directly if you want to discuss the situation further.
How do you test the vacuum pump on a 1997 7.3 diesel?

Why your brake pedal feel hard to press?
The power brake booster is failing.
You press the brakes and the car is at a full stop it shakes like you could feel the vibration what does this mean?
If you mean when you are coming to a stop, and press on the brakes, you feel a vibration- this most likely means that your brake rotors are warped and need to be turned. If you mean you are already at a full stop, in idle, and you press the brake and feel a vibration- it may mean a vacuum problem in the engine or something like that. So it depends- is it your brakes vibrating, you feel it in the pedal? Or is it your engine suddenly running rough and the whole front end of the car shakes?
