I got a 98 Dodge Neon race car SOHC. I have had some problems last year with it like losing power or feels like its in 3rd when its in second(bogging down feeling) All this was happening when another car would get into the back of me and it would get that boggy feeling, then if I shut it off and turned it right back on the power would be there. Now it happened today, but this time it was when going into the turn to hard and the car was upset and when coming out of the turn It felt right boggy. switched the power off and back on and it fixed that feeling. Could anyone please let me know what this could be. After talking to some other Neon racers at the track they had the same demon at them. Please send your thoughts very much appreciated.
Could be anything. What modifications have you done to the engine? I assume you know a bit about cars since you race them. Have you done anything yourself to rule out obvious things? Like a tune up?
Clogged catalytic converter, clogged air filter low fuel pressure lack of proper maintenance, etc. Start with a basic tune up. Plugs, filters, oil change, etc. Verify fuel pressure. Clean the TB. Scan it for stored codes.
This car is pretty rare nowadays. One of my friends was searching a lot of time for this model. They became very rare on the market. Anyway, after a few months of searching for one in good condition, he bought it. But in a week, he crashed it. It was a very awful experience for him. He was lucky with the insurance company that he signed. The guys from there transferred him the money in a few days. He works only with companies from https://www.car.co.uk/motor-insurance. It's a very well-known platform where you can find the best insurance offers.
