    Wiper motors

    A little help please, I may be beating a dead horse, but which wiper motor controls the other on a 1994 RT/10. My passenger side one is out of sync with the driver side one, and the blades tangle up, so for now, I have removed the passenger side blade and arm. However, I have a chance to pick up...

    A small taste.

    We went to Viper Days a couple of years ago at Sebring and some of the cars were hitting 155 mph in the long start finish straight (measured with a radar gun). It was a great experience just to watch the race, and the top two drivers ended with less than a 10th of a second apart from first to...

    Windshield wipers not in sync

    Thanks Tom. From what you said, I think it is the passenger wiper motor. However, I will just take off the passenger side wiper for now, as the car just does not go out in the rain. Roland L - Ocala

    Windshield wipers not in sync

    Yesterday, we took the Viper out for a short trip to a nice out of the way restaurant in the Crystal River area of Florida (Peck's Old Port Cove Restaurant on Ozello Trail in Crystal River FL), and on the way, it drizzled a bit. We even had the top down during the light rain, and I turned the...

    Corvette is the Official Vehicule at VOI event ?!

    I don't know how GM can continue to do this kind of thing like being a sponsor, especiallly when they lost 15 Billion (that's Billion with a "B" ) last quarter alone! Let them spend themselves to an early end. Then they will be just like the Vette in the puddle in the above picture, sinking fast!

    Best battery

    The OEM battery lasted for 8 years in our '94, but I used a trickle charger on it every winter when it was stored in Michigan. I now have an Interstate battery and it is working fine, again, I use a trickle charger on it when it goes into storage. Yes, even down here in Florida, I store it for...

    On my way to Florida!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    BAZ, There are airboat rides around Kissemmee as well, that's a lot closer than New Orleans, but maybe the sights aren't as good as the air boat rides in the New Orleans area. There is a huge slingshot ride at Old Town that shoots you up into the air several hundred feet that looks like fun...

    VMania Windows?

    Jon B is one of the best you can deal with anywhere for Viper parts. I bought a clutch and pressureplate from him for our 94 Viper, and it was everything he said it would be.

    7 Wide racing at Sebring

    Damn, Sorry we didn't make it this year! Last year was fun to watch as well, the racing is getting a lot better from the looks of the pictures and what you said. These races are always fun to go watch, we used to go to the ones at Gingerman in Michigan, and now they don't race there anymore...

    Viper Days at Sebring April 27-29....Details

    We went last year just to watch, and we had a great time. Not sure if we will show up this year, but last year, the Sunday race winner was determined by about one foot, so the racing was just about as close as you can get. If I remember right, they were running about 156 mph on the start/finish...

    HELP....Viper won't start

    Re: HELP....Viper won\'t start You might want to search this site for other threads like yours. This seems to be a fairly common problem and if it is a 99 and has the original battery, then that means the battery isnow about 8 years old, and could croak at any time. Mine lasted 11 years...

    Looking for a Dodge dealer near Clarkston, MI area with Viper tech

    If you are anywhere on the lower west side of Michigan, Wayland Chysler Dodge is a great place to take your Viper. I got great service from them when I lived in West Michigan, and Kelvin is the Viper tech there. They have a service department that is hard to beat anywhere in the state. Kelvin...

    Viper service close to Ocala, FL

    Hi Chuck, No, its not warranty work anymore on a '94, but good maintainence practice and recommended by the factory. Obviously Tom is well known around here, and I have already left him a message to call me back. Glad to hear that he is so knowledgable. Will you be going to Sebring this year...

    Viper service close to Ocala, FL

    Thanks Copernicus, I keep forgetting about them, hope they are still around as that would be closer than Orlando would be.

    Viper service close to Ocala, FL

    Geez, I guess that nobody has any suggestions as to any Dodge dealerships closer to Ocala than Orlando, that is troubling to me that there is no dealer closer than that who has a viper tech on board. I must have hit upon a gold mine when we lived in Michigan then. If any of you live on the...

    Did you buy your Viper sight unseen?

    I bought mine from a broker in Cincinnati, but had a chance to see it in person, drive it, get a bit more educated, etc, on Vipers. I would now buy one from him sight unseen, and from what I have seen on this board, Woodhouse and Tator Dodge would also fall in that catagory. Now, let me tell...

    Viper service close to Ocala, FL

    Does anybody have a recommendation for a Viper service center close to Ocala, FL? I can't seem to find one closer than Orlando, and that is about 75 miles away. Hopefully somebody out there knows of a Dodge dealer closer than that who has a viper tech on board. Need the antifreeze changed and...

    Shoot, If it is this Saturday, I don't think we will be able to make it! But don't let that stop you guys from meeting with FR. Viper, he is something to listen to, and a great guy to meet with. He has so much inside information on the concept and development of the Viper, that you will learn...

    Fr.Viper in Florida

    Fr. Viper (Roy), if you are going to be planning a get together down this way, please let us know when. I met you a few years ago at Brown Motors in Petosky, MI, and would really want to know when you would be down here in our area of Florida (We moved here a little over a year ago from...

    what are the most commonly broken parts on a viper?

    I had the door latch on the passenger side break through where the screws hold down the plastic part of the latch assembly, it is thin plastic, and it is an expensive piece to replace. I have heard of many rivets in the side sills of the Gen I cars starting corrosion, I have been lucky, no...

    Not bad for a ten year old car :)

    Very nice! I get the same comments on our '94 as well. No one can believe that it is now 13 years old! I like to keep it looking as good as the day I bought it in 1998, it seems that you do as well, and so do many other Viper owners. You guys hit it on the head, timeless style is about the...

    Which Picture doesn't fit?

    Re: Which Picture doesn\'t fit? My guess is B, because it looks like all the other pics are road tracks, and B looks like a dragstrip picture.

    Side sill repair

    If I am not mistaken, the side sills are made of aluminum so you better make sure the shop can work on aluminum. It has much different characteristics than normal sheet metal does! So far, mine still look ok but I have heard a lot about corrosion of the side sills, and I think it is mostly due...

    Ultimate GEN1 cat / muffler upgrade: Long Winded Version

    Has anyone had any dyno numbers done or should I say redone after these changes? I would be curious to see what the numbers say from before the mods were done, and then after you pulled the stock cats and replaced them with Roe's cats and put in glass pack mufflers. From what you guys are...
