    Help! Idle drops low when stopped, occasionally dies.

    Hey Guys, I am back with an update :) Ok, so after playing around quite a bit, I might have taken care of this issue (for the time being.) So I opened up the battery compartment and replaced the battery. After putting in the new battery, one of the ties was a little loose but I left it in there...

    Help! Idle drops low when stopped, occasionally dies.

    Hi Guys, Sorry it has taken so long for me to reply. Let me see if I can shed some more light on the situation. I have cleaned the throttle bodies a few times since the issue started. I cleaned them last night as well as adjusted the bolt to make sure that the drivers side throttle body opens...

    Help! Idle drops low when stopped, occasionally dies.

    Hey Guys, I have an issue that I have been having with my car for years now and I need to get it fixed. I have taken it to many shops here in town as well as taken it to Ken (viper tech in Portland, Oregon) and no luck. I have spent thousands of dollars on this issue and NO ONE can fix it, and...

    More issues. Need some help.

    Car is RUNNING now - with no codes. Still having the power/sound issues but I think this might be because of the passenger side O2 sensor, which I must have fried. There were some nicks in the O2 wires and the heat shrink that I put over it must have been what melted since the wires were all...

    More issues. Need some help.

    Yet another update** Narrowed it down to the upstream O2 sensors - just like Cayford thought (wires near the headers). Unplugged both sensors and no more blowing fuses. Keep you guys updated as we get further into what is going on.

    Another update** 2 of the fuses were blown - PCM and ASD. Replaced both, go to try and start it and the PCM fuse blows again, immediately. Short in the line somewhere? @Cayford - I am going to jack the car up and check. That fuse blowing scares me.

    More issues. Need some help.

    Ok, we just pulled a plug wire and no spark. The other strange thing is that when they key is turned all the way, the fan comes on. This isn't normal right? I could swear the fan only came on when either the AC is turned on or when the car is up to temp.

    More issues. Need some help.

    Hey Asp, I do have a service manual. At this point, I can't live without it :) I forgot to mention the biggest thing, which is that the car only has 17k miles. I just really want to get my car started so I can take it to a shop. Towing always weirds me out because of the damage that can happen...

    More issues. Need some help.

    Hey Guys, My '98 GTS now won't start, so I need help pretty bad. Let me try to explain the issues I am having right now. - Was getting an Idle hang when the car was hot so I replaced my 02 sensors and got sensor extenders because of the aftermarket headers -- Did not fix the idle hang at all...

    Some idiot tailgaiting me

    This happens to me quite often here in Bend. Civic, Subarus, SUVs, etc. Every once and a while, I will push it to get away but since my car is so loud, I am afraid of getting pulled over. What gives?? :dunno: There was one time a friend was screwing with me in his hooked up Evo MR. I punched...

    Window Auto Function?

    Oh and that guy who reviewed it is a complete idiot. The units work very well and depending on the application, there is a wire that you need to cut in order for it to work. It tells you on the install instructions. The first one that we put in did the same thing. Then we read the instructions...

    Window Auto Function?

    Hey NorthernSnake, You can get these for your car. I haven't put them in the Viper although I had an S2000 that I put them in for not only both windows, but the top as well. It is a "one touch" unit from Autoloc that intercepts the signal and powers the window either up or down with just the...

    Viper GTS everyday driver?

    Welcome! I am on my second Viper and used to daily drive both of them. The main issue that stops me from daily driving my current Viper is it snows here in Bend. That I will tell you that you DO NOT WANT TO DO. :) When I was living in the Bay Area, my RT was a daily driver. Only had one car at...
