MACnonsence6 Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 (edited) my car is a 98 neon and has that same engine and has that same problem. i had a cel on though for a misfire ended up being my timing belt was off by one tooth. so check your plugs,wires,plug gap, coil pack then check your timing ill bet urs is off a tooth as well as far as switching octanes these engines piss away higher octane fuel they love cheap stuff. ive had bad results with higher end plugs they like cheap plugs,cheap wires, and cheap gas Edited May 28, 2011 by hifonics10 Quote I picked up an MTX Sw1212 powered subwoofer today. This thing sounds amazing. 130 watts, 12" woofer with a passive 12" woofer tuned to 27 hz. Moving the pictures on the walls and my girl got wet from the bass when i showed her haha.

Bumpin the TWP Posted May 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Be sure to check the fuel filter. Do you know if its ever been changed?

I also think my fuel filter could be to blame because idk when it was last replaced also well before going out and throwing money into something that u dont know if its the problem or not go out to your car there should be a lil peak hole where the cam would be take that thing off and uall be able to see in and see the cam gear. then take the plug out of the 1st cylinder put something long thats sorta soft into there till it hits the piston. put a mark on it somewhere. then take a socket wrench and turn ur engine untill u see the mark on the cam gear, there will be a mark on the timing cover as well where u marked ur stick and when the mark on the gear matches the mark on the timing cover that should be top dead center. so if ur mark on ur stick can still go up after those marks aline or if it hits its peak and goes down before that mark ur timing is off. sorry if thats hard to understand i cant spell to well Quote I picked up an MTX Sw1212 powered subwoofer today.
