I have a 1995 Dodge Ram 1500, The vehicle shakes as you apply the gas pedal. No matter what speed you are going as soon as you apply the gas it starts to shake. When you let off of the gas it returns to normal. All of the engine mounts appear to be fine. I was told it could possibly be the O2 sensor, but I am not sure. I was also told also to look at the fuel filter. I am not familiar with how to check for codes. What can I do?

My check engine light is not on. The only light that is on is my ABS light. Would it be the u-joints if it doesnt do it any other time but when I am accelerating?

Have you checked all your wheels as you may have knocked off a weight on one of your rims? Or have you checked to see if the rims have any clay or mud built up? Possible one of your tires is seperating? Any of these issues will throw your balance on your tires and cause it to shake bad at any speed.
Take your truck in for a wheel balance and see if this will help or a possible cause to your shaking.
If this does not work then I would be thinking in the lines it is one of your U-joints on your axles that is going.
If it was fuel filter it would cause more surging/jerking in your vehicle as it trying to fuel your motor.

Try put the trunk in neutral while you are driving if it goes away you know its not in the drive line if it doesn't check the u joints trans mount ect. If it still does it check the fuel pressure see if it is at spec and go front there.

Check the spark plugs after you have checked the u joints if they are good. That shaking sounds like a miss. U joints have a high frequency vibration to them when they get loose.

Shaking as guidance wobble orchronic trans shaking. the raise put in incorrectly will reason the shaking. Did they positioned off units shims interior the rear to aline thechronic shaft perspective. Did U upload an improved guidance dampener piston to the guidance or an improved a million?? verify the lug nuts as some must be unfastened.
