My 96 Dodge neon 2.0 sohc manual just started to idle Ruth will try to die and it catches itself. Not so great fuel economy. Just did a tune up myself new plugs wires and oil change added fuel injector cleaner. When at idle like stoplights or signs or going around corners when foot is off the gas. Died going around corner. Died at stop sign. In neutral idle is erratic goes up and down. Has loss of power when accelerating. Any ideas? Dad ran code scanner showed upstream o2 sensor with a couple others. Dad says its probably one thing making all the codes show.

SOURCE: had a fault code for

I've got a 2002 Dodge Dakota, with a V8, and I've got 4 O2 sensors - they're referred to by "Bank #" (which tells you which side it's on, if you've got a V8, for example) and "Sensor #" (which tells you whether it is the "upstream" or "downstream" sensor on that bank.

Upstream is the one before the catalytic converter, and downstream is the one after.

Nothing beats a manual (e.g. Haynes) that can show you the actual view of your vehicle, and where each sensor is. I figured that for the price of the manual and the special, slotted 3/8" drive socket for the O2 sensor, I got the following advantages:

* saved installation labor;
* saved some markup on the part itself;
* now have the manual for future reference;

I figure that just the savings in installation labor paid for the manual and special tool...

No spark indicates either a coil,distributor,or crank position sensor problem.

Got 2000 dodge neon will start when cold run good but when motor warms up won't start

Nikki is the engine light on, are there any codes,have you had a tune up or any other work done lately.when you say it won't start when warm(do you mean engine will not turn over, or does engine turn and refuses to fire.
If I had to guess failing fuel pump, they tend not to build fuel pressure when ran a while(warmed up) and when left to cool build somewhat better pressure.

1998 dodge neon stalls after awhile wait a little bit then it will start and go for awhile then stalls again.

Not trying to highjack your post. I just bought a 98 neon sport, manual sohc 2.0. Im having the exact same issue i think, car will run for a while then tac drops to zero and it dies, 5-40 minutes later i can restart but i usuall only make it a few blocks and it dies again, wait again and it will restart. Did you solve this problem with your neon and if not can anyone give me more places continue to diagnose. It has new cam and crank sensors, fresh plugs, wires and coil, new battery. I got the car cheap, thinking of fuel savings but i dont want it to became a parts money pit.

I have a 96' Dodge Neon, and my car wont start

Try looking to see if your injectors are clogged or if fuel is getting to the fuel rail. You can take the hose that is on the fuel rail off then try starting it or just pump the gas pedal and you should see gas coming out. I had a similar problem with my 97 neon and this was my problem just try and see, you never know.

Potential Symptoms

Symptoms of a P0118 could include:

* Very poor fuel economy
* A no start condition
* Vehicle may start, but run very poorly, blowing black smoke, running very rough and misfiring
* Illumination of MIL
EGR valve

Usually a fault in the control circuit, will leave no noticeable symptoms other than the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) illumination. However, if the EGR control solenoid
is stuck open due to debris, etc. the code may be accompanied by misfire under acceleration, rough idle, or engine dying altogether.
