you mention nothing about the check engine lite on. With this kind of a problem there should be a fault code stored. Possibly cyl missfire code, huge vacuum leak or a faulty catylitic convertor. Glenn Beasley Chrysler Tech

When I start the neon the motor revs up to about 4000 rpms then slows
down to about 2000 then starts to spit and sputter, when you push the
break pedal it is like when the vehicle is shut off, (like there is no
vacuum) and within just a few minutes the catalytic converter will
glow red.
any ideas
