i looked at it and nothing seems to really be close to touching it was especially bad today seems like the car needs to get pretty warm before it starts cuz when i first got in today it wasnt shaking at all.

Just humor me and see what your timing is set at... I bet it's a little high... just loosen the dizzy hold down bolt and rotate it counter clockwise a bit. Then go out for test a drive and I'll bet your problem is solved.
