Problem with car shaking/surging

I've recently developed a problem where I can drive a while and then once I stop and put the car in park and let it run, it starts to shake off and on(like little 1-2 second shakes) every few seconds. It almost feels like it is surging but my rpm's aren't dropping. Could this be the fuel pump? Or something else? Everything in my sig is up to date

It could be some bad gas.

Re: Problem with car shaking/surging

no, i've had the car for 4.5 years, i probably would have noticed by now. It's really just a recent development. Maybe detonation?
