Startup Issues

Okay, for the past few months I would peridoicly experience a noticable abnormal vibration that would just go away a few seconds after startup. No SES light and was told that it was probably a temporarily stuck injector and not to worry about it.

Tongiht, 15 miles away (can't be in the driveway) from my house, the same thing happened. Only vibration got worse after placing it in gear followed by SES light. I tried shutting car off, starting it again and same issue happened.

I moved it about 200" to a wide open parking lot so I don't get towed since it was late at night.

Here is my list of culprets:

1) Clogged Injector
2) Fuel Pressure Reg.

Engine sounds fine from the exterior (no strange noises) but you can feel the vibration inside. Car idled at 1000k.

Hopefully I can get a code reader out there tomorrow. Any other troubleshooting ideas? Thanks for your help.
