maybe want to check that your Cam Gears are lined up correctly - it won't idle/run very well at all and your yellow Check Engine light will be on for the code Cam Position signal not matching Crank Position signal.

The small piece you need is the sun visor retaining clip, it is a common dodge/chrysler part found on the neon, avenger, talon, eclipse, etc.
if the head was just worked on, my guess would be that one or both of your camshafts is 180 degrees out of phase. this is a very common problem with our cars and most of us that have done a timing job on our engines have made this mistake. find out what the code is to be sure first.

The two marks must be next to each other. Like this --> <--
Also, the cam gears will say "2.0L FRONT" If set up correctly, one of them will read correct, the other will be upside-down.

Good resolution? Haha. I wish. This was the best I could do tonight.
You won't be able to see the dowel locators on your gears because the bolts will be in place, but look at the gear on the left. Notice how it says "2.0L FRONT." If installed properly, the other gear will have this up-side-down (inverted).
If you are still unsure, remove the valve cover and inspect the camshafts. When aligned properly, they will each have a hole sticking up, shown here by the green dots.

thanks for all , but my problem is here again, the cams are ok in good position , verified ! all is ok , but my engine is turning bad , low rpm are difficult , i must take compression , perhaps it's a problem with valves , Who can find me this "sun visor retaining clip ? i pay all before , no problem ! please , it's impossible for me to find this item in france ! and my yellow light ; check engine is light all the time ... the keydance don't give nothing, it occurs anything, nothing does not ignite, i don't understand nothing , ciao
