1996 Dodge Neon

My daughter has a 1996 dodge neon. When driving it makes a loud popping noise and its getting worse we have changed the spark plugs the gaskets around the valves where the spark plugs go, battery and fuel filter and nothing seems to work. We thought maybe next is the timing belt or ignition switch but not for sure what is causing this loud noise? Help please!

Hi goodgrl0731,

Thank you for the donation.

When popping noises are concerned, it should be caused by a misfiring.

Direct Ignition System (DIS) is used so you need to check if any of the coil packs are faulty, which is the most likely cause since plugs have been replaced.
