When you say it shakes a lot when you drive slow means that is doing like pat pat etc? if so check for any spark ht lead not working,ask somebody to help who has an idea about it if you do not. If HT Lead is working then check for any not working spark plug or broken catalytic converter.

SOURCE: Sounds like it's going to die until it warms up...

Katrina, the fact that your car runs (like a beauty) when shes warmed up, indicates a fuel air mixture problem when cold. Your car is equipt with electronic fuel injection. This system utilizes a series of sensors that detect conditions such as engine temp, outside temp, humidity and air pressure to determine what mixture is perfect for the prevailing condition. For example, on a cold start, the sensors should know that the engine is not up to the proper operating temperature and provide more fuel and less air, (a richer mixture), until the engine warms, this emulates a choke on a vehicle equipt with a carburator. The problem either lies in the sensor itself, or the brain that interprets these inputs to decide what fuel/air mixture to deliver.

Testimonial: "Very fast and detailed response makes it easy (for those of us who aren't savy in automotive repairs) to understand. "

2001 mazda tribute blowing holes in egr valve. When driving it starts out good then you gas on it it runs ruff then valve blows out it runs fine till I get home then dies.

This does not sound right at all. I have never heard of an EGR valve blowing holes! Buy a replacement like Ray says. If this happens again plan on replacing your exhaust system, all parts, because if it is clogged this is how car fires occur. Don't take the chance.

My tribute started making a clicking/rattling noise near the belt that has gotten louder within a day. It is not the oil. Would you have an idea of what it could be?

Drive belt needed to be replaced on mine... Mazda dealership told me that the manufacturer knows that the drive belt is not strong enough... when I ran the air conditioner it was horrible sounding!!! It took the dealership repair 2 days to figure it out!
