If you removed the rocker arms then the exhaust valves will all be closed and so will miss the pistons. How ever if the inlet valves were not working and the rocker arms were still in place then there may be damage to inlet valves.

SOURCE: 1996 timing belt changed, lined up all the marks,

Hi my name is juan and lets try to solve this it is possible that when you rotated the camshaft the distributor last his position and this is why it won't start it may not be the problem but this happens a lot so open your distributor and aline up your marks on camshaft and the crankshaft then make sure the distributor is pointing near the #1 spark plug if is opposite give it a 1 more turn to the crankshaft line up your marks again and se what happens #1 spark plug is the closets to the front part of the engine on 4cil

SOURCE: 2005 Dodge Neon SXT Transmission

Follow throttle valve cable to linkage above shifter cable and linkage. Probably slightly seized and hanging up, causing it to stay in lower gear too long. Hard to see, might have to remove battery and battery tray to get at it good. It has to move freely, and it will usually seize up unless lubed regularly. Should be able to move it easily back and forth by hand. Spray it good with WD-40 or whatever to loosen it up, then coat with white lithium spray grease as well. P.S. do not remove throttle valve linkage (top one) to clean or lube it, otherwise you'll be pulling tranny apart to fix it.

SOURCE: 2004 Dodge Neon SXT, added new battery need code to reset car

if you are the original owner, look in your paperwork. if you cant get to the original owner or they dont have the info, you can go to your dealer, and they can reset it for you. and charge you

or you can just start entering codes till it works, which will take you weeks or more.

good luck

Will a 2004 Dodge neon R/T exhaust system fit a 2005 sxt neon?

There is no interchange for exhaust systems, but since they are the same platform I would think so. Check the rear bumper cover for differences for the exaust tips, but as far as running from the front to the back, I would think they should be the same.

Dodge neon 2.0 L sohc how to remove lifters from rocker arms

Ok here is the deal, the lifters are poorly designed and prone to noise or "tick", the way to silence this is not just new lifters but new rocker arm assemblies which include new lifters. Use the best parts not the cheapest ones, factory new one are improved from previous designs. If you still want to just replace the lifters you must take the rockers to a machine shop and have the lifters pressed out and replaced by them. Another suggestion is if you live in a warm climate use 10W-30W synthetic oil.

I removed rocker arm assembly and did not line up timing marks did i waste the car 2005 dodge neon sxt

Take off the intake side, then set the #1 cylinder to top dead center. When you install the cams, set them close to where the marks should be. Alignment is critical when you put the belt on. After the belt is on turn the engine two revolutions by hand and recheck/reset your marks. Every time you reset it, turn the engine again and recheck marks.

2005 dodge dakota has a rattle for 5 seconds at

Sounds like a rocker arm is out of adjustment or one of the rocker arms are worn more than the rest. If you find one loose rocker arm and the rest are tight then the entire rocker assembly will need to be removed and the one rocker arm will have to be replaced. Thats on a V6 and V8 models . Now on the four cylinder you have to remove the timing belt cover,unbolt the timing belt and hold tension on it to keep the belt from jumping off the crankshaft gear. Remove the rocker arm cover and you will have to remove the cam to get to the roller rocker arms. There is alot of work to do to get this job done. If you do not have all the tools to do this with, then it would be better to take the truck to a mechanics shop for repairs. Hope this will help you.
