Default 1995 neon error codes 11 and 43

I know what the codes mean...a thank you to the person who posted them on here, eh....here's what is happeneing and what I have done....changed the O2 sensor on the manifold and changed the plugs and wires....took it out for a test run and after it warmed up it started to idle high then low, high then low, then stalled completely...I'd say after about 10 - 15 minutes I could start it up again and got it home just before it started to idle up and down again and stalled right in my driveway...good for me that I got back but now I am wondering what could be wrong? ie) bad crank sensor, bad camshaft sensor or bad coil pack...any help would be appreciated...haven't had time to check the wiring to these things yet will do that tomorrow...but wanted to get this out there first...anyhelp would be appreciated, thanks

have you checked the timing of the cam to see if it jumped a tooth yet?
or does t run fine till it warms up?
crank sensors will die after they get warm if theyre cracked

Inspect the coil pack for any cracks, if you are still getting a Code 43.

I also see you have a 95, so it could be your fuel pump overheating and shutting down.

There isn't one specifically for the HG. What's wrong with your car?

Are you adding coolant as well? Have you checked your oil lately?

Yeah, head gasket issues commonly come in the form of symptoms, bubbling resevouir, white smoke from tail pipes, ani-freeze in oil, oil in anti-freeze and others, there are some that can cause your needle to spike that would lead you to think you have a bad headgasket that will throw a code like, the coolant sensor.

we're changing the oil in around 500-1000 miles now
so pretty soon

we put in more oil about a month or two ago and i've been keeping track of the milage

and it has enough coolant

its just the water runs out quick
but not the whole thing

just around 1/4 like i said before

my dad just needs to find the time to fix the head gasket

since they ask for so much money just to fix it at the shop

Your putting a 50/50 mix of coolant and distilled water, right?
