lol but my girlfriend does... I frequent a few forums for my car and their more than helpful so i figured i'd join one for my girlfriends car. Its a 2000. Havent looked under the hood in a while so i forget which motor she has (im at school 2 hours away from home so I dont usually do the work on her car). But i do all the work on my car, and plan on helping her fix up her car a little this summer. It definitaly needs a tune up, we have no records from previous owners. (Her dad bought her the car from some used car lot where he knew the guy). I make sure that she has regular oil changes done, and records them.

Im thinking this summer we'll do
Sparkplugs/wires
pvc
fuel filter
airfilter i recently changed

She also needs a new muffler, and since she cant afford a full catback i'll most likely just weld up a muffler to the stock piping. (She also isnt too concerned about performance, so this will suffice.).

Give me some time to search around the boards, so I can get used to what the common problems are with these cars, and also the little tips and tricks that tend to float around message boards that are vehicle specific.

:D

Haha no thanks, I'll stick with my ride. I was impressed with her neon though, for a 4banger it holds its own, and the handling was pretty good as well. Seems like dodge did a good job on this car.

Welcome, also from a newbie. I'd have too say that the 2000 was a great year, but I'm just a little bias. :rockon: Anyway enjoy!

Right now I have intake, 3"hiflow cat and 3" piping back to a flowmaster 80 series muffler, and kyb agx adjustable shocks with eibach prokit springs. I wanna get some more appearance stuff done now with wheels being first on the list. After that i'll probably do some engine internals.
