My daughter's 2002 Neon is having a problem - when stopped at light it
hesitates and sometimes stalls. When you are backing up and turning the wheel
hard it will sputter and try to stall. Any suggestions?

Is the check engine on? When was the last time it had a tune up with a  good
set of plug wires?

The check engine light is not on - the car was in a wreck - my brother, who
is the collision repair teacher at the vo-tech school bought and fixed the
car - it has only 55,000 miles on it.  Didn't think it needed a tune-up yet.

Connect scan tool and drive until it gets hot, do a couple of decels from
about 45mph down to about 35mph then see if you can monitor a misfire. If
the vehicle is running this bad it should set a code
