ORIGINAL: racerx55

a loose connection on the throttle position sensor gave me a similar issue on a neon more than once. the vibration of the motor had it connecting randomly and it would spit & sputter then die
where can i find the concector to the tps? i want to check mine because it randomly does this from time to time. im still new to dsm's im just trying to get her running like a champ. 96 420a.

well how do u know exactly what engine it is? its the same block and stuff as the stock one and it says 2.0 DOHC... haha.. Do u think its the timming? Cause the spark plugs have gas on them so its getting fuel there.. Or u think my throttle body needs to be cleaned? It is ported out.. if that helps..

Well, its a 420a... unless its a Spyder, then it COULD be a 4g64.
