Why would your truck vibrate and idle rough after you changed the spark plugs?

Possible wires installed wrong or plugs not gapped properly. You don't say what kind of car so I cant tell you the firing order. Check you put the right wires on right plugs. ALSO- If you have a timing light or access to one- Check timing! If it was timed/tuned with old plugs for several years (it happens, my smog guy does it to pass me), then it might have been changed to accomodate the old plugs wearing down. Plus a hotter burn/spark will automatically change your compression and therefore your whole burn sequence. I put in 'fancy' platinum plugs in my Bronco once and it refused them, running terrible. Had to put in new 'old' type plugs and ran perfect. Go figure. Dokter Denney

If your car is shaking it could be poor suspension alignment can cause a car to shake and vibrate, and other possible causes are bent or worn suspension parts, old tires, bent wheels and bad brakes.
