NOTE: Neon vehicles do not use a heated air inlet system. The PCM adjusts fuel injector pulse width and ignition timing to compensate for different
ambient temperatures.
NOTE: The air cleaner attaches to a bracket on the rear of the cylinder head. An ambient air duct supplies underhood air for the engine.
