1997 mountaineer, AWD 5.0 V8 with 169k
Been noticing a shudder when in gear at a stoplight, or when going up a steep hill, more noticable after I did the plugs. Two of the wires (have not changed them yet) came apart (the metal terminal inside the boot came off) when I was removing them. I sort of repaired them. No codes for a misfire. Could old plug wires and two damaged ones cause the engine to shake? Or is this possibly an engine mount issue? (Changing the plug wires in a day or two.) My mechanic did notice a shudder when the transmission switches in to second gear, possibly a TCC according to him, maybe that issue is getting worse? Looking for diagnostic steps to attempt to find the source of the shaking

I would start with the wires and see if the problem is still there.
