Were is the oil filter on a 1998 dodge neon

oil filter is located underneath the vehicle to the left side, rearward of the oil pan. The adaptor requires a deep well socket to remove and is removed by removing the nut at the base of threaded connector for oil filter.

On the back of the engine.

The best way I find to test a solenoid is by removing it from the starter. Then, once off, use a set of jumper cables, attaching the positive and negative end to a battery first and then at the solenoid end the positive cable to the positive bolt on the solenoid. Then, using the negative cable, make contact with the push-on terminal end of the solenoid. This should result in the front spring-loaded end kicking forward. If it doesn't happen try the other push-on terminal end and make sure that the positive section of the jumper cable is on the correct bolt. Trial and error usually goes along with these things so don't stress too much about it.

i got it out from removing the air filter if ur talking about the reservoir

There is only one bank on a Neon. So includes all the cylinders.

The Plymouth Neon 4 cylinder engines that have automatic transmissions generally get 23 city and 30 highway. The 4 cylinder manual transmission engines can range from 25 city to 34 highway.

A Dodge Neon does not have any such part.;

A broken connecting rod usually calls for replacing the "short block" at the minimum. The motor most likely has damage to the crank and block. Either replace the bottom end or another motor. There is a possibility that it could be overhauled but I dont think its likely

It doesn't have one. It uses a speed sensor and drives the speedometer electrically. If your speedometer isn't working, it could be the sensor or it could be broken solder points on the instrument cluster circuit board.

knock sensors operate the same in every vehicle. when the engine "pings" or called spark knock( due to bad gas or low octane fuel, carbon build up on top of pistons or valves) the knock sensor sees this and retards the timing. vehicles now days, timing is not adjustable by u or me, only through the computer using the knock sensor and other sensors. master tech 26 yrs.

It is under the plastic housing that the upper radiator hose hooks to on the engine.

Speed control relay. You will be better of if you have the system checked with a scan tool and get a 4 digit "P" code. They are more specific than the 2 digit codes you get from flashing the light and counting.

The tcc solenoid for the 31TH transmission in on the top if the valve body inside the transmission pan. The electrical plug in is behind where the dipstick tube goes into the transmission case.

Check the actual oil level with the dipstick, then with your local agent.

Best case, it's a sensor or wiring fault that they should/may know about.

Worst case, you are low on oil and heading for engine damage.

my manual says it holds 12 gallons. it could be 12.5 but it is one of the two.

It's an ugly situation for the Neon. First off, when a timing belt breaks, it never happens in a convenient time or place. That's why it's a good practice to change the timing belt every 60,000 miles or so - check the vehicle manufacturer's specs for their recommendation. As for what happens, that depends on the vehicle. When the timing belt breaks, the camshaft stops turning, but the crankshaft continues to spin for a few moments. In some engines, there is sufficient clearance between the now stuck-open valves and the top of the piston that the engine harmlessly comes to a stop, and the only real damage is to the timing belt itself. On other engines, like the one in the Neon, there is NOT enough clearance between the stuck-open valves and the tops of the pistons, and the resulting damage is quite severe, probably requiring the cylinder head to be replaced or rebuilt. Changing the timing belt just because of the mileage might seem like an expensive precaution to take, but not changing it per the manufacturer's recommendation is taking a gamble that you can't win. It's true that you *might* get an extra 5,000 or 25,000 miles out of it, but WHEN it finally lets go on your Neon you can at least Quadruple the repair costs as compared to simply changing the belt itself.
