The symptoms you described, such as the tachometer moving up and down, the exhaust emitting black smoke, and the engine shaking and slowing down and speeding up by itself, could be caused by a variety of issues.
Here are a few things you can try:

Check the fuel system. A problem with the fuel system, such as a clogged fuel filter or a malfunctioning fuel pump, could cause the engine to run poorly and experience shaking and misfiring.
Check the ignition system. A problem with the ignition system, such as faulty spark plugs or a malfunctioning ignition coil, could cause the engine to run poorly and experience shaking and misfiring.
Check the engine oil level. Low engine oil level can cause the engine to run poorly and experience shaking.
Check the engine timing. If the engine timing is off, it can cause the engine to run poorly and experience shaking and misfiring.
If you are unable to identify the source of the problem or if the issue persists after checking these components, I recommend having a mechanic diagnose and repair the issue to ensure that the problem is properly addressed and the vehicle is safe to drive.

Engine running roughly, loss of oul

Toyota Corolla 2003 Hatchback automatic  290 miles
Loss of oil but no leaks on motor or underneath the car, no smoke either

Drove one night and was perfect, next day drove 5km and it was almost bunny hopping and sounded like a VW. Engine lights or oil lights have not come on at all, and i constantly check after owning a piece of crap Holden. Find it strangefine one day screwed the next. Any suggestions? ???

Burns oil like crazy

Toyota Corolla 2009 xrs  15907103 miles
I had an oil change on it done 3 weeks back, the week after driving it I had to top it up with some oil, a lot of smoke comes out the exhaust pipe and the color is a light blue, the smell of chemicals and smoke come through the air vents when driving, car is not able to make a long distance drive. Not even close to a 6 hour drive it would break down

The car was being out white and black smoke due to late servicing and lead to high rate of fuel consumption and have rectify that but now it is blue smoke what might be the cause of the blue smoke despite the good sounds of the engine
