Re: Engine shuddering, only during idle - tried few things..

The video seems to indicate a good size vacuum leak, your idle seems pretty unstable. The ignitor is on the firewall, by the throttle body. I couldnt discern the ticking from the video..... it could be a spark jump from the coils, but its most likely the hydraulic lifters making the sound.
