    What engine? If it's a non-electronic then you have a direct link to the engine under your foot, and any lack of smoothness in how it runs will be telegraphed back to you. It may just need the injectors and valves gone through.

    You don't really say what kind of vibration it is, or under what conditions it manifests itself, but one possibility is worn out or broken motor or transmission mounts.

    Using a few gallons of diesel can make a slight improvement, Check the Owners Manual for the GAS/FUEL ratio.
