engine also shakes in gear at low rpm, neutral & park OK..
All help appreciated!!!!

I don't know the specifics of your engine, but it sounds like the engine idle speed control is not controlling idle speed in response to various load conditions, such as A/C compressor, PS pump, and torque convertor loads.
Have a good tech check it out before you throw any more $$$ and parts at it.
