Achieva LX 2.4L

  • Manual transmission
  • 128,000 miles

when idle it jerks/hesitates badly. embarrassed when sitting at a stop light and my whole body is slightly jerking that I sing to have it look like I'm moving with the song. Had it put on the machine to see what's wrong and the mechanic says that he's never seen anything like this, all 4 cylinders misfiring. I've replaced the sparks and the coil packs and that didn't help.
