2000 Neon keep cutting off....Please Help!?

Ignition parts can fail intermittantly, that means it sits and cools, then restarts. There may or may not be the amount of self diagnostic in your system to pick this out, some cars give a misfire code and others give cam or crank sensor codes when they fail in a DIS system. you must get help from certified testing people. Try the emission test people for the most cost effective use of your funds. You havent told us what code is stored in the memory at this time.

You stated the crank sensor was diagnosed but you did not replace it. Proofread and update your question please.

Start again from having the codes read.

get a print out with the explanation.

When you understand the codes definition, you can google it.

Enginecodes.com is a site you can search through to get an explanation and a list of possible causes.

The pinpoint test can verify the part in question has caused the failure, or whether it is part of the issue caused by another part, or a general condition occurring.

See what you come up with and they let you update your question, here on answers, as it develops

Start from the basics. Is your fuel tank breather obstructed? When the stoppage happens, open the filler cap. If you hear a "woosh" of air entering the tank this may be the case.

There must be a breather, you see, to allow air to enter the tank as fuel is drawn, otherwise a partial vacuum can form and stop the fuel flow. When the engine has been off for a while enough air can have the chance to get in for it to be able to run again- until the vacuum builds up again. and stops it once more.

The catalytic convertors could be clogged. Drill a whole in the side of one and knock the platnium build up out. Sounds like they are clogged and proper air flow is the issue. They may need to be replaced or just cut off the vehicle depending on what is legal admissions for your state. This will make the car louder when on the go but at least you will be going.

well, after multiple failures I would take it to the dealer. The ECU dosen't just throw codes, and if the problem is anomalous I would see them. But, on the highway tests the engine. First test the cooling system. Are both radiator fans working? Does your car have coolant?

Ive seen the crank angle sensor on three vehicles cause this problem.

Dont get taken for a ride. Take it to a reputable repair place and ask for a Diagnostic Only for your problem.

sounds like the fuel system has problems, get it checked out by a professional dealership, they need to investigate more

could be ur distributor is bad

Ok my car cut off on side of the freeway but after like 30 minutes it started back up. So I drove it to a gas station and it cut off again while I was pulling up. I got a new thermostat and that didnt work. I replaced the camshaft sensor and that didnt work. I took the car to AutoZone and they said it was the crankshaft sensor then took it to another AutoZone and they said no its not the crankshaft sensor and that the codes read the intake temperature sensor. I replaced the that and its still cutting off. Im so lost and confused. Can anyone give me any information please. Thanks
