    Service Manual for SRT-10

    I agree with what you say. I should have said the dealers now get CD's now unless they request a paper copy, then they get to pay more for the limited numbers being printed, thus the price increase.

    2003 was the last year for "paper" Service Manual for the SRT-10. Everything has switched to a CD.

    How do the injectors come out.....

    If you pull a rear injector out, mass quantities of liquid fuel will drain into the cylinder if you do not depressurize the rail. If the injector is returned to the manifold and now you turn the engine over, you will be trying to compress the liquid fuel and the motor doesn't like that. If the...

    How do the injectors come out.....

    You should always de-pressurize the fuel system before you remove an injector. Other wise the fuel will drain from the manifold down the opening you created, and will find its way into the cylinder. Liquid does not compress very well.

    Torque Specs for shock installation

    Hold the bolt, tighten the nut. I assume that you will place the vehicle at design height(not ride height) when you tighten the bolts. This makes the upper rear bolts hard to get to.

    Harmonic Balancer Bolt Loosened

    The vibration damper is not keyed to the crankshaft. That is why the torque spec is 250 ft. lbs. This spec has been used since 1992. Save your call.

    $300.00 "VALVE JOB" MoPar Certificate EXPIRES 4/30

    Re: $300.00 Jon is correct. Technically, the expiration date includes that the work be completed also. There a number of vehicles that have not had the work done for what ever the reason. If you where planning having the work done, I suggest that you contact your dealer to set a completion date.

    Current SRT Cam Bolt Issue - Straight from SRT

    The dealers have a list of VIN's that need the RRT. In the RRT was a list of parts that could be needed during the repair. The dealers started ordering multiples of everything on the list before vehicle number one showed up at the dealer. So, that depleted the stock of parts over night. A...

    04 Cam sprocket VIN's

    Re: 04 Cam sprocket VIN\'s What I would like know is who said that this is RECALL. The letter that went to dealers is NOT a recall. I repeat, it is not a recall. It is a Rapid Responce Transmittal to have dealers check their inventory and perform a repair procedure. Owners of the sold vehicles...

    This is too much...

    I am glad that the your problem has been solved. The sad part is that the dealer did not ask the you the proper questions when you dropped off the vehicle. Any time there is electrical problem on any vehicle, they should ask thing like: Has anything been installed in the vehicle resently. Does...

    door locking question

    When you put the vehicle in the battery save mode, the wake up circuits to the vehicle are turned off. This means the RKE and electronic door entry will not work. The only way to open the door is to use the driver door key cylinder or pull the inside door handle all the way out.
