    '99 GTS starts and stalls/dies

    Simply put, if the battery is, or, was low, you need to fight to keep the car running for a few minutes to relearn a few things. I can tell you that even if the battery will start the car, you might still have trouble with the alarm causing the motor to die. Again, the battery is most likely...

    Smog Time again

    Load test your battery. A battery that will still start the car but has a bad cell will cause the engine to act up!

    Plugs and wires

    I would stay with stock wires. They fit the clips better than any of the fancy performance wires. Jmo

    Why does my parking brake get loose?

    I haven’t investigated this but I’ve had my pull lever slip a few times. It feels like it’s in the ratchet mechanism itself..?

    1999 GTS AC repair

    I’m looking for someone in the Sacramento CA area that knows how to revive the AC in a gen 2 AC. Never worked on, all the parts are there. Just hasn’t worked for years. Any leads would be much appreciated!

    Need help, Viper overheats.

    Could be a bad sending unit. Dose your fan cycle normal? If you are in fact running hot, your fan will continue to run. Sometimes things are simple??

    GTS running hot

    Start the car, let it warm up, dose the fan cycle on and off? If so, replace the temp sending unit. If the car is running hot the fan will stay on. Cheap fix. Sounds like what happened to me a couple years ago.

    $158 red light ticket.. the viper repair still costing me money

    You are in the intersection, past the crosswalk. Unless there are other pictures, I would say you beat the light. But who am I to judge?:dunno:

    Viper sputtered and lost power temporarily yesterday

    My Viper started acting up. Driving on the freeway it would shut off. Happend several times. I changed the battery and that solved the problem. I know sounds weird, but Vipers are fussy when it comes to battery's.

    Rear hatch unglued on my GTS, again!

    What I was told, 1000 grit sand paper to clean both parts. Use two packs of glue for mounting a rear view mirror. (sold at any auto parts store)

    Any tips for closing the hood by yourself? ---

    Also, after closing the hood, go to each side and lift up on the hood just above the wheel to be sure it has latched on each side.

    2" Seat lowering kit instructions

    I slotted the mounting holes for ease of alignment. And yes, add washers under the front.
