1987 GTA car idles rough
1987 GTA car runs rough and won't start. Car was shaking from rough idle. What would be the possible causes of this?

Any number of things. Bad spark plugs, bad gas, low fuel pressure, bad injectors, bad pressure regulator, bad ign wires, sensor reading way off, large vacuum leak, stuck egr, broken mechanical part inside the engine... give us some details. Check plugs, look for things disconnected like wires or vacuum lines.
