Not in my case. Fixing a small leak at the hose barb at the lift pump fixed my "hot shake". The cold idle was smooth as silk with "the old filters from the PO".

$70 later, burnt fingers and a new rack pin that I didn't really need... It was a simple fuel/air leak.

If I had only checked the fuel lines... Sigh....

That new rack pin sure is pretty though.
