I just bought my neon 2 days ago and now it is stalling out while driving down the road. I have no dash lights indicating any trouble that light up. After letting it sit for a few minutes it will start back up and then stall again a little while later. What can be causing this to happen?

well, could be an idle air control valve, but I suspect a crank sensor, neither one of these will display a check engine light for the most part.

what I would do ,is, bring this vehicle back to where I bought it and ask them nicely why is this doing this, two days after driving off the lot.

Thank you. Consumer Guide says it may be the wiring harness causing this trouble. Is that possible?

well it could be, but I dont think so. I think we should address the sensors first
