Re: Crankshaft tone wheel, reoccurring p0339

BBR I meant the torx that hold the tone wheel onto the crank. I just rechecked them to make sure they were tight. Wasn't sure of the torque needed so just went over them at 25 ft/lbs. They weren't loose at all so I bought new cam/crank sensors by NTK from rockauto and it fixed that code and the misf...

Crankshaft tone wheel, reoccurring p0339

04 R/T engine in 03 SXT. Has been running pretty stupidly for the last 3months. It all started after I had my CKP sensor go out and stalled during rush hr traffic. I cleaned the connector because it was covered in oil and it drove 2miles before stalling again due to me forgetting to install the inta...

Rear disk swap was pretty easy. The e-brake cables were a PITA though. Finding them was a whole nother story. I got new rotors from acdelco and they had surface rust in a few days. The inside drum is the only surface to worry about.

Well, My Neon Is Still Only Giving Me 150 Miles Per Tank =/ It Runs Great But IDK What Else I Can Do That's lousy MPG for a Neon. :( My guess is that you have a combination of factors, "stacking up". - Tire pressures - Dirty spark plugs - O2 sensors are 'marginal' (but not bad enough to set a code)...

It's a consistent random pop if that makes sense. I can hear and feel it while sitting and revving up to 3000rpms until my exhaust drowns out the sound. If I hold the rpms at rest it still pops like a misfire that I can feel.

Exhaust popping at idle like if decel.

Okay guys bear with please. 04 full RT swap. I recently had a run in with an improper COP ign setup which caused my pcm to go stupid setting the p0351 over 20 times for about 12mi and misfiring on cyl1-2-4. Junked that and now I'm back on a stock coil. Now since letting it sit for 3 wks I can hear p...

Yeah I drive 40+mi everyday. And I'm rarely grandpa-ing. Car is too fun so I was surprised I got that much. Drove to mineral wells and back sunday with some friends on a little less than half a tank. And it's 80+ miles one way.

Just got 357mi to a tank. Before the gas light started binging. This is srt wheels and R/T drivetrain too so highway mileage shoulda took a hit. So it might be time for you to get a fuel service/seafoamed/tune up'd/pcm reflashed and transmission fluid changed. If not done. Just to name a few lol.

It should only activate when it is at WOT, except below 4900 rpm and above 3000. They are normally closed until WOT is sensed. Even in the RPM windows, with the factory PCM controlling them, they should be closed all the time if a WOT signal is not received from the TPS. So if the TPS voltage is of...

They were working up until 2 days ago. Now it feels like it's struggling above 5k rpms. When I had my Syked r/t pcm you knew they were open with IGN on( they slammed open), and IGN off (you heard them slam shut). Now IGN on I hear nothing. I only hear them close when I'm WOT (KOEO) and IGN off. No v...

Ill try the factory faceplate. I'm ok with lengthening a few wires and the antenna too since there is a plug and play option. I wonder if I can hide it behind the factory faceplate. I'm gonna talk with a local srt guy who owned his own audio shop.
