    Interstate MT-78. I paid full price of $125 at Jiffy Lube last summer, but you can find them at various service stations nationwide. ^^^what viperB said on installation.

    Any tips for visiting LA in October?

    To find a dealer to see if they have the new Viper in their showroom, go to http://www.autotrader.com search the make = "SRT" within zip code = "90045" (here I used LAX airport) and make = "Viper". You may want to enter 25 miles or farther for your search criteria instead of the default of 10...

    Any tips for visiting LA in October?

    Yes, that would be fine. But you sure will be missing out on the Cars & Coffee in Irvine. Since you're from Germany and coming down in October, we like you to feel at home at our Oktoberfest at Alpine Village in Torrance (Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights)...

    GTS Cover

    I believe the factory gray cover I have with the Viper Sneeky Pete logo is an Evolution fabric, which is a relatively thick cover that offers good protection from dings. But you can check out the various fabric guide from Covercraft and decide which would best suit your needs here >>>...

    Fixed my A/C for $4!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Did the same here. I bought the HNBR Rubber O-ring Kit (green o-rings), specifically the 24-piece assorted kit from Autozone. From the chart size diagram on the back of the packaging, here's what I used: Larger size: 13.8 x 2.5mm Smaller size: 10.8 x 2.4mm

    Draining gas tank on '98 RT/10

    Yeah, tried that already, but discovered it's a REAL PITA to get the fuel filter out from underneath. The so-called "quick disconnects" are not so and I wasn't a happy camper getting gas dripped on my face. Skip it unless you know for sure your filter is clogged and needs replacing. It's much...

    Fixed my A/C for $4!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Mine was the same way. I have an '02 GTS, I'm the original owner and I've never had any AC service done before whatsoever. Here's a pic, originals on the left, new ones on the right:

    Fixed my A/C for $4!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ^that's the one thing I would recommend after changing out the o-rings, pull a vacuum to make sure to pull out any moisture in the system, then recharge. I didn't do this step and I'm a little concerned even though it does blow cold air now, but will do the next time around.

    Draining gas tank on '98 RT/10

    What Tom Sessions said. "I would jumper the fuel pump relay and use the fuel pressure tap in the intake manifold to pump the fuel out of..." Pull out the fuel pump relay, run a bypass wire to connect the ignition switch output to the fuel pump relay output. What this does is allows you to...

    Fixed my A/C for $4!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Photos from underside...the A/C compressor is on the driver's side, the lines go up and over. It's a very tight area to get your hands through to loosen the 10mm bolts.

    Anyone with Car Lift info?

    franchise: That's great news from your contractor. You will need a minimum of 4" for the "cushion", but the more higher, the better!

    Anyone with Car Lift info?

    franchise: What is the length of your garage? Since you were looking to get a convertible, I was thinking you can put the Chevelle on top, and put the convertible with the top down, but back it in and stop before the windshield. The lift could be placed as far back to the garage as possible so...

    Anyone with Car Lift info?

    My electrical source is an outlet from the ceiling which I have an extension cord that hangs down to the pump unit. In case if the pump motor ever gets stuck on the "on" position, I can easily yank the plug out. Normally, I keep it unplugged until I need to use it. My "Up" pump button is 66" off...
