    Remote clutch slave bleed

    Forgive my ignorance if Im missing something, but does the mityvac method not work on our T56's? It just seems easier than messing with a remote line. I've been tempted to install one, but I know I'll be kicking myself if I introduce a leak. https://youtu.be/1jhGAceCpx4?si=-nKtLYQqKikEW8VS

    Sometimes stalls when coming to a stop.

    I did manage to solve my problem. For synchronizing the throttle bodies, I did the usual routine then used my iPhone slow motion camera at 240 fps to capture both throttle plates opening while a friend slowly pressed the accelerator pedal. From reviewing the footage frame-by-frame they seemed...

    RT/10 GPS mount?

    Interesting... There's so many of these out there that it's hard to judge what actually works. Thanks for the tip. I ordered one and will give it a try.

    RT/10 GPS mount?

    Perhaps this has stumped others as well! I came up with one idea here: https://www.viperclub.org/vca/threads/3d-print-a-gen-1-gps-mount.679085/ I'm still interested in other suggestions if people have them.

    RT/10 GPS mount?

    Does anyone have any clever ideas for mounting a phone or gps to a Gen 1 viper? I feel like I have a few half-baked ideas, but none I'm totally satisfied with. Pictures are great. Product makes and models are appreciated.

    Plugs and wires

    oh yeah. I did do that. My Quality Wires came with a little packet of dielectric grease. I also made sure to re-push in all the plugs (on the coil side) once I was done all 10. By working on each wire one-at-a-time, it's easy to knock one of the 'done' ones loose while unplugging the 'next' one...

    Plugs and wires

    I just changed my wires on my 93 using Quality Wires. Each was slightly shorter than the OEM wires (date stamped 93!) but I think it was intentional to cut out some of the slack. They fit the OEM wire clips without issue. But man... what a chore. Number 5 was the hardest. My right hand was...

    Power Steering Cap Fix

    So I was at Monster Jam today and one of the truck's headers caught fire. It was safely extinguished and taken to maintenance. They announced the cause was power steering fluid spraying onto the headers..... I would have thought the fluid would smoulder more than completely ignite.

    3D Print a Green Doohickey

    We can rebuild them. We have the technology! Must be printed or painted green. If not, other Viper owners will point at you and laugh. And you know what? They're right to do so. Never leave home without your doohickey...

    OBD 94 viper

    In terms of "modern" obd1 readers. These three devices are the same: Actron CP9690 Bosch OBD 1300 OTC 3211 They come in stock from time to time. However, they don't have an entry for Dodge Vipers. You can get some live data by selecting a 1994 Dodge Ram V10. I tried reading codes with the...

    Gen I 1992/early 93 Radiator removal versus late 93 & up & Gen II. Total Insanity!

    It sure does. But I don't have A/C (f it. I'm in Canada). I have the same rad setup as you. I don't have any problems with my cooling system at the moment (fortunately) and won't get around to it for awhile. My current maintenance/upgrade list is enough for now and next summer. Maybe next year...

    Gen I 1992/early 93 Radiator removal versus late 93 & up & Gen II. Total Insanity!

    Actually, what you say lines up with what's in the service manual. See attached pages.

    Gen I 1992/early 93 Radiator removal versus late 93 & up & Gen II. Total Insanity!

    Oof. I have an early 93. I was wondering how different it was because I wouldn't mind getting mine recored eventually. It's good to know, but a shame I can no longer be blissfully ignorant.

    Lumbar support fix with no Viper tax !!!!

    9 years later.... Thank you sir! I just replaced both of mine for $19 Canadian dollar bux (which is only about $14 in freedom dollars). "Blood Pressure Bulb" seems to be the best search term on Amazon. https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B09L14GLPT?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details

    Gen 1 Audio Upgrade Thread.

    I have no idea. But this type of scenario is why I provided a reference point (with an offset in mm) along with how I came to the conclusion. You really don't want to make a mistake here. Using a welder to fill in a misplaced hole is difficult with the fuel tank right there. Worse yet is you...

    1993 stereo head unit removal and install

    Gen 1 wires from trunk to interior?

    That's a good suggestion. I had actually tried ferrite blocks on one pair of RCAs as well as a make-shift ground loop isolator, but the problem persisted. Note to others: If you've come here searching for a solution, go here...

    Gen 1 Audio Upgrade Thread.

    Running new cables from trunk to interior continued. 3) With the hole drilled, the rca cables must be fished through. 4) The carpet is glued to the back. I jammed a metal bar with the green rope through the carpet to avoid unsticking all the carpet 5) Remove the driver's side knee bolster...

    Gen 1 Audio Upgrade Thread.

    Running new cables from trunk to interior. This post explains what I'm solving: https://www.viperclub.org/vca/threads/gen-1-wires-from-trunk-to-interior.678964/ My path goes from 1) The trunk, into the fuel tank area 2) Over the driver's side wheel well 3) Behind the carpet behind the back...

    Gen 1 wires from trunk to interior?

    I installed some new speakers and they are more sensitive to poor audio signal. With the key on and engine off, I turn on the head unit with volume at 0, and I can hear a high pitched whine. I'm not being picky here, it is a legitimate nuisance. I grabbed some RCA coaxial cable and tested with a...

    Battery tender and mounting it inside engine bay

    You may also want to ask yourself, how weatherproof is that carquest charger? What ambient temperature is it rated to run at? How resistant is it to vibration? I bet at some point the heat cycles and vibration will crack solder joints and then kaboom!

    Battery tender and mounting it inside engine bay

    Similar story here. My car came with an orange and black plug just behind the front bumper. I found out it's a plug for a CTEK charger so I bought one. I would just run the cable and call it a day :) I don't have a gen 2, so I can't tell you specifically where to connect positive and negative...

    Gen 1 Audio Upgrade Thread.

    Alternate head unit mount. Since I'll have to remove the head unit again at some point, I designed and printed (in abs) an alternate style mount. I posted it on printables.com here: https://www.printables.com/model/757298-1992-1996-dodge-viper-radio-mount It eliminates the metal L brackets. It...
