My 2005 Dodge Neon does not want to crank. When it does crank and you accelerate then rpms increase rapidly and then fall back to about 1500 and the car starts acting like it wants to cut off. The engine light is now on and does not go off. When you come to a stop the car jumps forward quickly and then acts like it is going to cut off. Not drivable, too dangerous.
