95 dodge neon hard to start

This problem has got me on my neon if i go out and i try and start my car for the first time of the day it is a rediculous task to do. I have to give it gas and it will want to start. it will start but then just die off in like a second I have to give it gas to get it to start. Now I have recently replaced the egr to see if that fixed the problem but it didnt. I can hear the fuel pump turn on when i go to try and start the car.

I have recently switched my metal gas tank to the plastic gas tank from my 98 parts car i also switched the fuel filter from it aswell. I am not getting any code thrown and once i first get it started. I dont have a problem with it for the rest of the day. when i first get it started i have to let it rev allittle and then it will be fine but its al lilttle boggy at first. but then its fine. there isnt any acceleration issues. when I rev it high and it drops off after I let off the gas the motor will maintain itself and not bog out. also

so im lost lol

When I had a problem like that, the battery was slowly dying on me. One day it completely died, put a new battery in and no more problems. I'd check for corrosion on the wires and/or terminals and under the battery tray.

its a brand new 650 amp battery. it been relocated to the trunk with a 2 gauge wire running from front to rear. but aperntlty the problem has disapeared when I put gas in it yesterday. I wonder if there was water in the gas in the tank:rolleyes:

I wonder if there was water in the gas in the tank:rolleyes:Then it would be in yur filter now! Could have just been a bad batch of gas like you said though. Keep an eye on it just to make sure.

The filter assembly is different for the 1995 and the 98.

The 1998 has the filter in the sending unit. The 1995 has a separate filter outside of the tank. Two different systems.

On the 1998, the outside filter like thing is not a filter, it is an accumulator. If you swapped that into your 1995, that will cause you problem.

If you swapped that into your 1995, that will cause you problem.Where would the problem be?

If he swapped the accumulator thinking it was an external filter which the 1998 does not have.

If he swapped the accumulator thinking it was an external filter which the 1998 does not have.He swapped the whole gas tank though...

yes i switched out the whole entire gas tank the fuel filter on the 95 has three connections and the accumulator on the 98 only had two so i was forced to switch it over its the exact same setup just a different car.

Have you checked fuel pressure yet?
