CPS Problem???

I've had a really bad "Miss" while I'm driving. In fact, it's to the point where my whole truck shakes. Then, when I'm sitting in park, I can rev it up to about 1200rpm, and the whole engine wobbles. Do you think that this could be a CPS problem?
******* dealer has already made me replace my tires...
Plus, they've replaced my harmonic balencer & Flywheel...
Just got it back yesterday, and I've still got the "Shakes".

I read a bunch of posts about the CPS problem, and how it might not show up on a diag...
Any ideas?

Thanks!!!

from what i have read and my own experience( my cps went out a few months ago) the truck will run fine and just die. no missfires or rough running . after it dies it may fire right back up and it may not. its was either fine or dead. hope this helps

While your truck is shaking, is it also smoking a lot?
