The car starts sure enough... after you pump the gas two times before you turn the keys in the ignition. It may be because it is incredibly cold that it start so roughly but i have no idea.. i know nothing about cars. Well okay we get it to start but the engine just shakes the entire car like no other... it vibrates very intensely.. my dad replaced a couple of spark plugs but that did nothing.. i don't know whats wrong....
