I have 1996 dodge neon wont start, ive got spark from spark plugs but ill got only little pressure on gas. could that be fuel pump and how will i diagnose it properly. thanks

if it turns over real easy u got busted timing belt. take plug wire off and put screwdriver into plug side have friend turn over car and watch for and listen for spark. only thing stops neon from turning over no fuel no timing belt no spark(bad crank sensor) bad fuel pump pluggled catalytic converter(not very likely) bad computer (not very likey)

What is the fuel pressure when the engine is running ?
Has the filter been replaced ?

If the Starter isn't turning the engine over, but you hear a clicking sound, you may have a bad Starter.
If the Starter is turning the engine over, but you are getting no Spark, you may have a failed Camshaft or Crankshaft Position Sensor, or your Timing Belt may have jumped or broken(common on the neons).
If the Starter is turning the engine over, but you are getting Spark, you may have a failed fuel pump, fuel pump relay, or fuel pressure regulator.

Before you start replacing sensor, double check the Timing belt to ensure it hasn't broken or jumped, and check to see if you are getting a spark or not.

If there isn’t a spark then check Electrical system, or check the gas system from the injectors up to fuel pump. Do not forget the fuel filter ….

starter not engauging w/flywheel are you sure that starter was'nt damaged in accident? hope this helps!!

check rings

hi
You said spark plug is firing that is fine have you check fuel system check your fuel pressure regulator,also check your spark plugs conditions.
It can be fuel pump but first check the pressure fuel.

Might as well try the idle air control valve, or the mass air flow sensor. Sounds like you've almost hit them all!

Check the timing belt. Sometimes the timing tentioner goes bad in them.

Try looking to see if your injectors are clogged or if fuel is getting to the fuel rail. You can take the hose that is on the fuel rail off then try starting it or just pump the gas pedal and you should see gas coming out. I had a similar problem with my 97 neon and this was my problem just try and see, you never know.
