'95 Geo Prizm engine vibration?

Question:
I have a '95 Geo Prizm with about 185,000 miles on it. As long as I've had it the engine (1.8L I believe) has produced a lot of vibration at idle. The whole car shudders when the engine is at idle, but it smooths out when I give it some gas. It also doesn't seem to generate as much power as it should. I know it's a Geo and so it isn't suppose to make much, but it makes less than it should.

I changed the plugs, distributor and rotor recently but this did not affect the vibration or power.

Sounds like you may have a bad motor mount or bad motor mounts. You want to take you car to a shop and have them check you motor mounts and transmission mounts also. these mounts going bad pr breaking will cause vibration.
