Head to a Home Depot, Lowes, or any hardware store that have a bolt bin. Bet NAPA, Carquest, PepBoys and similar might could help you out if you got the original bolt to match.

Funny, that yards don't have any NEON's out there with the same motor under the hood ....

Play nice what he means is that bolt can easily be sorced a ton of different places. Look for local part outs on CL or the classifieds here as well.

Dodge (Chrysler) Neons have the same motors i forget what years but they are out there

yea pretty well all of em from 95 to 98/99 have potinal of having a 420a with few if any changes and all that was with wireing

1995 is when the NEON came out, but with the SOHC 420A block.

1997 until they disappeared in 2005 carried the DOHC version.

someones done their googlein i was jus sayin i knew they came out in the neons and a number of other chrysler cars i wasnt sure what years excatly but i didnt care enough to look it up but the point is i wasnt really looking to pull and buy a used one i would much rather buy a new one for less the $240 for the whole sha-bang with tensioner that i dont need ive already bought a new one but heres a picture of the bolt if someone other then a nit picker of my post please let me know ive read online that this is a commen probelm with the 420a after a timming belt change when you have people like me that decides to save money and leave out the thred locker (which is what happened) but anyways sorry for my rant i jus dont like fact checkers too much if i was giving wrong advice id understand someone chimming in but when i obviously dont care enogh to do a simple search on google i dont see why you should just to prove me wrong thanks for readin guys

i have a picture of the bolt up on my profile i cant figure out how to post it on here so heres a link to the pic instead
