    Gen 1 Clutch Linkage Separation? HELP!

    So - it appears that the Clutch Cylinder has snapped/broken causing my problem... curious if anyone else had a similar issue? I was told removing/changing the cylinder is not that bad - it's the bleeding of the clutch line that is a pain and lengthy?

    Gen 1 Clutch Linkage Separation? HELP!

    I am hoping my fellow VCA members can help me out. I have LIMITED mechanical knowledge and had the worst night this evening since owning my Gen 1 Viper (almost has 17,000 miles). Just as I was leaving my street for a quick drive, I was trying to change from 1st to 2nd gear and SNAP - my...

    Average MPG?

    GRNBGON - so TRUE that we Viper owners own the THE most awesome car in the world! I'm there with ya, too, VIPERTANZ! Maybe I am a bit nutz (and still a fairly new owner of this amazing car), but as I am about to head to bed, I just HAD to stop and go in my garage and check "her" out... I am...

    Average MPG?

    I have a '95 RT/10 - getting about 12 mpg with 95% City driving... and that's being good with the 'pedal' (which is so hard to do in a car like this!!!).

    Viper Pics

    Just thought I would post a few pics of a recent meet with two other fellow Viper owners I met after buying mine late this summer. One has a beautiful '97 GTS that sounds amazing - the other is a HOT '98. As we met downtown, a bus-load of tourists came out and just when nutz with their...

    re: Viper Car Cover

    I hope this does not sound like a silly question, but I have a blue-coloured Viper GTS car cover. It is used and seems pretty 'dusty' and I wanted to wash it... it is all right to machine wash these car covers or? Just want to make sure I do not ruin it! Thanks everyone...

    Just wanted to say...

    Vipers are AMAZING cars and being a new owner I feel pretty damn lucky and fortunate! I had been waiting 18 years to own one and now that I have it, it truly rocks! I have a Gen 1, and as you mentioned scotmcc, the bad weather is fast approaching! I still plan to take mine out during the...

    Advice on 95 vs 96

    Hey markk - as everyone stated so far, I agree about it coming down to personal choice. Both Gens have their differences. I just recently bought a Yellow '95 Viper RT/10 that had 14,400 miles on it and LOVE IT!!!!!!! I picked mine up for $32,500.00 US - inlcuded in the price was a set of...

    Gen 1 - Idling Question

    Thanks, Ted... is it a difficult task/job cleaning out the IAT unit? I, myself, am not that mechaniclly inclined. However, my brother-in-law is (not certified, but he has knowledge and general experience). If I had a shop manual would that be a huge help? As for replacing the Cats -...

    Gen 1 - Idling Question

    Thanks guys! And yes, I plan to give her a LOT of TLC - just got her over a month ago and plan to do a basic over-haul (fluids, plugs, etc. Oil change was done as soon as I got her, however!). Appreciate the advice and assistance!

    Gen 1 - Idling Question

    Thanks vprtech & dave6666! IAC - I heard about that (I just need to figure out the process/steps to doing it. Is it pretty complicated or basic)? Engine is all stock - no mods. I had the local Dodge dealership (and their tech) replace the pump so not sure about the matter of what could...

    Gen 1 - Idling Question

    I have a '95 Gen 1 which recently had the Fuel Pump replaced. What a better difference I noticed (especially when I fire her up right away)! One thing that I have noticed is when I get to a stop light and idle (mostly when in neutral) the revs will bounce back and forth between 0-1000rpms or...

    This car is getting to my head

    LOL - that is what I did last Saturday night (just got my Gen 1 almost 2 weeks ago)!!! LOL - it was about 10:30pm and I had my lawn chair on the drive-way with a nice cold one in my hand and just stared at 'her'! They are an AMAZING car!!

    Nice country drive (pics)

    Craig - beautiful car! I now have had my Gen 1 for almost 3 weeks and LOVE it! The reaction you get with a Viper is awesome (and driving it is as equally fun)!!! I, too, agree with you for leaving it as is... I just want to get those 'side windows' and Hard-top you have... how much were...

    Daytime running lights mod

    I am not sure if it's a law in all provinces in Canada, Chuck 98 RT/10, but I just bought a Gen 1 and had to have it inspected here in BC and was required to have installed the DRL in order to insure it. I just got the actual kit and had the tech disabled it (and showed me how). I think...
