Put bad gas in my car about two nights ago (bout a gallon) ran fine then started acting up. put two gallons of good gas in and still ran ****. changed the spark plugs and disconnected the battery bc the check engine light came on when i was driving. reconnected the battery and now i have no spark the fuel pump comes on but thier is no spark can u help me.
If the car has over 100,000 miles on it, you may need to replace the distributer. I don't think the bad gas caused this issue I think it may just be a coincdence. But if you already changed the plugs, wires, distributor cap, and rotor, I would definetly check the distributor.
If you put bad gas and the trouble just started then, then its the bad gas that caused it. what kind of bad gas are you referring? dirty? diesel? low octane? You may have clogged the the strainers in the fuel pump(inside the tank) or the fuel filters. If its dirty gas, change immediately the fuel filter. you don't want dirty particles getting into your fuel injectors they are more expensive to replace. You may even have to evacuate and clean the bad gas you put in the gas tank.
If its bad octane but clean you may have a fouling plugs. still drain the tank off the bad gas. You won't get immediate result if just by adding good octane fuel.

How many miles does it have on it?
2001 neon was running sluggishly, had spark plugs changed and it ran like new for about 1000 km. now problem is coming back, especially when I first take off. Have to take my foot off the gas and accelerate slower. In park it also isn't steady when I step on the gas and leave it in one place. What might be doing this? My mechanic said it was the wrong spark plugs before and put in new ones, like I said it ran good for about 1000km and then started again.
