1997 plymouth breeze has no spark

I changed the head gasket in the car. Now it will run for about 8 minutes then loose spark. It has a new cam, crank and water temp sensors. Has power at the pigtail for the coil but no spark. Tested the coil on another car and it worked just fine. Anybody have any ideas about what im missing?

SOURCE: 1998 plymouth breeze won't start

I guess my problem was the new crank sensor has failed.
Replace crank sensor again , it has fixed the problem.
Not too sure if this was any help or not.

SOURCE: no 8 volt supply from pcm

You likely already checked this but how about a broken timing belt. If the cams aren't turning the cam sensor isn't working and the pcm won't fire the plugs.

SOURCE: plymouth breeze

Yes, I had this on my 97 Stratus....could be a couple of things....one, the there may be damage to the wire connector harness going to that sensor. That was the problem with mine. I replaced the cam sensor, crank sensor, coil pack, mas sensor..etc...it ended up being a burnt spot on the wire harness. They said this is a common problem for the stratus/breeze/cirrus/intrepid.....the most it could be is a bad ECM....there is a bad pin on it located half way down the side where the big connector is. It is the silver block with the big wire harness going to it in the engine compartment. Try wiggling that around...the harness area.

I have a 97 plymoth breeze and it keeps dying when i am driving. I will have to let it sit for about 10 minutes then it will start and run for about 2 or 3 minutes and die again. What would the proble

Have you done any diagnostics? When the problem is ongoing, are you saying it cranks good but won't start? If so, engine cranking, did you check for spark at the plugs and fuel injector pulse? If your missing both, I'd check the cam and crank sensors. Don't replace anything unless your testing points in that direction. How long since a tune-up? Any applicable trouble codes? Some of the national brand auto stores will check codes for free or get an obd2 code reader.

Changed head gasket and cam seal twice and the car run two days without leaking oil now it is leaking oil on right side of car

Are you tightening all the bolts to torque specification? If not that can be an issue for your leaks. Also did you have the head resurfaced before installing the new head gasket? If not it could be slightly warped and leaking.

I have a 1997 plymouth breeze with the 2.0. This morning my husband drove it to work, the oil light came on and now it turns over but won't start...any ideas. Thanks

The first hing I do with any neon crank no start that I get is check the timing belt to make sure it is turning. If it isn't it broke.

The next thing I do is check for fuel pressure. If there is none it probably needs a fuel pump and I make sure it is getting power and ground before I replace it.

Lastly I check for spark. There are a bunch of things that can cause no spark.

See if all of these are o.k. or not and let us know what you found. I'll happy to help further once we know a little more about what is missing (fuel, spark, etc.)

I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

Most probably ur crank position sensor or the pick-up coil is defective (or nearly). What that does is the computer knows where the No.1 cylinder is so that he knows when to send the spark to the correct spark plug. Now ur computer doesn't seem to know where the No.1 cylinder is, so he fires at random. Eventually the spark lands at the right place at the right time, hence ur engine is long to start.
That is my best guess.
