It won't know how to act, being back in DD status after so many years....

LOL, maybe they are messing with you. Or they are going to think you are really pissed at them. :lol: Most likely, they are probably understaffed, and just don't have time to process every single detail. Semi related: They shut down all the Ohio county fairs as of July 31, because no one is followin...

LOL, nope, not looking for a Santa Fe, just commenting on the writer's lack of understanding terms. But I get your point. It's the same as people complaining about Subaru not offering a turbo Forester anymore. The sales weren't stellar, but all the "keyboard buyers" threw a fit when it was dropped. ...

Regardless of the brand, it's just sad that people writing about the automotive market think that style accessories are performance parts.

It's like calling an SRT-D a performance package, when in truth, it most likely hurts performance by a small degree.

More like "Style" parts, as not one of those will increase performance.



My bad though, as we all know certain bumper stickers add 5 to 10 hp.

None of your current mods are going to significantly add more air and fuel going through the engine. The drop in mileage is probably mostly from your foot, being sucked into the more aggressive sound the motor is now making. I was still getting up to 40 mpg with my '01, with a 60mm TB, short ram int...

Welcome! Well, I wouldn't say this forum, or neons.org are exactly balls of fire in activity, but we are still active, among about 5 or 6 people on here, maybe 12 on the .org. Back in the day, there used to be 50 or more people on either site a day. Hopefully the ones that do still hang around can a...

My best guess is the heat shield for the exhaust tunnel has dropped, or is about to drop onto the exhaust pipe. the aluminum rots away around the fasteners, and the shield falls. If the fasteners will come loose, you can get some fender washers, and re attach the heat shield.

They sell cheap American wine in Italy?

I have my doubts.

If memory serves me correctly, the clamps are spot welded to the factory pipe. It's been 11 years since I have removed the factory pipes and went with TruBenz stainless. I used Walker band clamp style clamps to connect the new pipes. They don't crush the pipe like u bolt clamps, and make removal a b...

Keep soaking the joints with penetrating oil. The exhaust was pretty well rusted on my '01, the clamp bolt had even nearly rotted in two, but with a bit of soaking, and then using the muffler as a leverage tool, I kept twisting it up and down from the outlet end, and got the pipes to come apart. The...

Since you got a credit, I doubt you'll get any response/refund from Carlisle. None of the businesses I have filed a claim against have ever contacted me about the matter in any form. If they aren't going to return your calls or emails about a refund or exchange, they certainly aren't going to contac...

The PCM does not know what engine it is controlling. As long as the sensors are compatible, it doesn't care. The cam magnet only tells the PCM what phase the cam is in, so it will inject fuel in time with the intake valve opening. The crank sensor is what tells the PCM where the pistons are for the ...

The cam magnet doesn't make a lot of difference. At least with my experience. If you move it far enough, the engine will just not fire. So basically, you can move it in both directions, until it doesn't start, and put it in the middle of that. What I did the first time, was use a small square, and m...

Any MTX from a 1995 to 2000 neon. IIRC, everything else is a hydraulic actuated clutch. Some are 3.55 final drive, and some are 3.94. And the 5th gears are 0.81 and 0.72 overdrive. If yours is original, it has the 3.94/0.72 combination. https://www.neons.org/forumdodge/trans.htm It has to be a cable...

I have to say, that is an interesting motor mount set up. But being a race car, it does the job.

Is there a way to check an make sure that the injectors are working when they are suppose to or do they all work at the same time? While the car was running I would disconnect one at a time and each time the motor would go down to 3 cylinders. Is there a program or software that we can plug in and ...

Depending on how "West" you are, about 4 plus hours away...

We haven't gotten rain for weeks now. Most of the storms/rain goes right around us. I have been mowing the grass with the deck all the way up, just to knock the weeds off, and keep them from spreading seeds. It has also helped to keep the grass from getting so brown, though that is beginning to be a...

I can only imagine the crawlies that have made a home under there. And it looks like there is a fair amount of mold on the interior.

2.4 swap will require the engine mounts/brackets, exhaust manifold, etc from the PT, so grab as much as you can. IIRC, you may even need the PS pump from the PT. I think the reservoir is a bit different than the neon unit. Basically plug and play, as the engines are phased the same, unlike the 2002 ...

If the body is in good shape, and you could do the work yourself, a JY engine would probably be cheaper than a replacement car. Being an '05, the engines have a bit more availability. But if it is rotting out, I don't think I would dump the cash and effort into it. IDK if you bought it new or used, ...

sorry to hear about your job occasional demons :( I hate of hearing of people losing their job during this crazy period of time. Have another job lined up? How long were you with them for? Nothing lined up, as I have to stay until March to get my severance. No one is going to match that amount to h...

Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday!

You made it another year, there is that to celebrate.

Talk to your doctor before using Stellantis

So true, it sounds like a new drug. Or a new illness.

I don't have long honey, I've got the Stellantis-29 virus...

And the picture links still won't work without "permission" even after logging into google.

Unless you are seriously low on fuel pressure, 32 lb injectors should be flooding that engine. With 21lb injectors, and 63 psi, mine runs pig rich and loads up at idle. Even when I pull the fuel pump relay, it never clears up, and stalls before that happens. my injectors were brand new, and this has...

Altantis, meet Stella....

I always click on the unread pasts, in the quick links upper left hand corner. That way you get everything that was recently posted.

"New posts", and "active topics" don't seem to link to stuff like FS threads, project logs and the pits...

Otherwise, I would not have seen it....
