Misfire?

What is your question?

Recently my engine began to shake and the engine light turned on. I soon discovered 6 of the 8 spark plug coils had gone bad. I replaced all eight but still the car shakes a bit while parked or stopped. I took it back and they suggested fuel cleaner.For the most part it has helped. My engine sounds good, moves great, and getting better gas mileage, but still there is a slight "kick" and shake when I am stopped and feel it more in park. I'm not sure what could be wrong.

You need to have the code pulled and work the problem.

Not sure what the original code, but when I brought it in, I was told it was for the spark plug coils. I'm not getting any engine light, and I know it would turn on if there was a misfire, but since its been fixed, I'm still feeling the shakes and what I can only describe as a slight kick.

check your timing and when you replaced the spark plugs and wires did you change the cap and put it on right and did you correctly gap the plugs and is the wires on in the correct firing order
