    Gen. 2 Head gasket time

    Replacing the valve stem seals is pretty straight forward ( if you have an air compressor).

    Broken fan - What Now

    My 03 would set a DTC with a 170 thermostat, but not a 180.

    OBD 94 viper

    It has an ODB1 connection, not ODB2, so standard code readers will not work (a Chrysler DRB2 will). You can retrieve the codes using the standard Chrysler method of cycling ignition on-off-on-off-on and counting the flashing check engine light.

    '99 GTS starts and stalls/dies

    Interesting coincidence. 2 days ago, a guy at work left his headlights on in his 2000 Ram Van. After I jumped him off, it wouldn't idle without holding the throttle slightly open. Even after few minutes of this in the parking lot it would not idle. Took it for a 10-minute drive, all was...

    Viper Dana Super 44 Rebuild (How-to) - Gen 3/4/5 (2003-2017)

    Not having limited slip additive can cause this when making turns.

    High flow cats vs other exhaust input

    High flow cats basically just don't function as well as the stock ones. When cats are working, they generate heat. Since high flows don't convert as much gas, they don't generate as much heat, so maybe you can get by with the factory insulation......

    High flow cats vs other exhaust input

    I would suggest just removing the cats, if you can get by with it in your state, and leave the rest alone. See how it sounds, exhaust sound is subjective. It will be significantly louder with much lower sill temp. Some like to use high flow cats as an expensive muffler, but that just adds heat.

    Any 3rd Gens running 4th Gen Exhaust Muffler/Resonators?

    Factory manifolds, you can talk to someone, but I wouldn't call it easy.

    Any 3rd Gens running 4th Gen Exhaust Muffler/Resonators?

    I've got MagnaFlow 10436's with no cats on my Gen3. I like the sound.

    Where to get 335/30r18 tires mounted

    I've had this problem with many vehicles in the past. The solution that always works is bring the rims in loose, not on the car, then they always go ahead and mount the new tires.

    Smog Time again

    You can touch each injector with a mechanics stethoscope hear if it's working.

    Smog Time again

    Any OBDI codes stored? Check engine light on?

    Bent Exhaust Valve - Again

    I would check the valve spring pressures. If reduced, this can lead to valve float, then pumped up lifters, which then will hold the valve partially open allow them smack the piston...

    P2610 Code

    Is that the only code?

    Viper Dana Super 44 Rebuild (How-to) - Gen 3/4/5 (2003-2017)

    This is excellent advice. What's interesting is I had the almost the exact same experience 40 years ago. On a Chrysler products' rear end I built, the gear oil was seeping out. The RTV was still wet. It was a small tube of RTV that came in a Dana 60 bearing kit. Probably on the warehouse...
