I have a 96 Neon that over the last few weeks keeps dying. I have had the Cat.
Converter replaced and it ran for a few days without problems. It then
started dying when I stop. The points and plugs and power steering pressure
switch has been replaced and the throttle plates cleaned. After this is ran
again for only a few days. It's now doing the exact same thing again! Does
anyone have any suggestions on what may be causing this. I am running out of
"budgetted" maintenance funds and I'm really being to wonder about my repair
shop. Thanks.

On my '98 neon it was the crankshaft position sensor tht let me down
and it only happened with a warm engine. she would start and run fine
until temp came up to normal (maybe 5 minutes and then die). I finally
had to take it to Auto Zone. let her idle and when she died code her,
no codes on cool engine.
