It sounds like there's oil getting into your combustion chamber. Blown rings/warped head? Your car should not idle as high as 2,000rpm. Normal KA idle is about 750. I've only seen mine go to 2000 once, it was ridiculously cold outside. If fixing your oil problem doesn't help your shifter and car shaking, I'd look at the motor mounts. It should also shake if not all 4 cylinders are firing, and they might not be, your plugs and wires don't sound like they're in the best of working conditions. If I were you, I'd start by changing the oil, plugs and plug wires. Then I'd check the oil level every morning before I start it up. If it all remains the same, you might wanna look into purchasing a lower-mileage KA that's been swapped out for an SR from one of these guys on the board. Either that, or rebuild that thing in ther right now. Good luck.

thank you, it was running fine last week, and i haven't pushed the car or anything as of the day i purchased it, hopefully it's the oil and spark plugs
