Went for a short blast in the Viper tonight, as I pulled into the garage I smelled something burning, smelled like plastic. When I came to a stop in the garage I saw smoke coming from under the hood....YIKES!!! (that's not what I said but I can't print what I really did say) So I fly out of the car and raise the hood in record time. Seems my Power Steering Fluid Reservoir Cap was not tight to begin with and had came off and landed on my header. Luckily no serious amount of power steering fluid came out or I could of had bigger problems. There were no flames just a power steering reservoir cap smoking on the header. I got it off as quickly as possible but there is still melted cap on my header, I'm sure the car will smell great for the next few trips till that crap burns off. I tried to check as many things as possible since my Arrow Rebuild but I never checked the P/S Cap. Other than that everything has been super since the Arrow Rebuild. Looks like I'm heading to the dealer tomorrow for a new cap...and possibly some locktight!
