Yes to the heater core.

No to the fuel pump. That could be the throttle body or the idle air control valve on the throttle body.

I have 1997 Neon was running good. Sat 6 hours at work, cranks up, backs up then forward 3 foot and shut off. Thought was fuel changed pump, same thing. Changed crank sensor, cam sensor, map sensor an coil pack. Was cranking over but no start. I am not getting fire out of the coil pack. Had pulse fire on middle wire but not sure about other 2. Checked timing believe it good.I got pressure on fuel rail.I'm lost and need some help on which way to go.

You need to check the actual fuel pressure with a gauge. You can rent a tester at a parts store.

Start there.

Yes. I would check it out to be sure. When there is too much slack in the belt it will set the code
