    Ticking Sound in 05 Motor

    When they changed the engine did they replace the oil cooler and lines as well?If not then you stand the chance of failing the new engine due to debris in the old cooler.Easy enough to pull the valve cover to check for a bent push rod.If is a lifter you have to pull the head to change.Not a easy...

    Starting problem PLEASE help!!

    You need to look at your oil cooler lines.With that ground not hooked up it will ground through the oil cooler lines and melt them from the inside out.May cause a oil leak.

    I have to tell everyone

    Great looking car but looking at the pictures it looks like you need to call Jon and order a set of tires.The ones on the car look like MXX3's which may have loads of tread but are hard as a rock which equals a ill handling car.Put a new set of PS2 on that baby and enjoy the ride.

    Spoke with Todd at Arrow the other day and he said the stock mopar filter is the best for the car.It has different specs than the wix filter.So for once OEM is the best way to go.Yea I missed the header with the year in it

    HELP Viper won't start

    Thats what im here for. If you havent replace the batery before I would look into putting one in .What happened is a typical low voltage issue.Confuses the PCM untill it has enough power to run the car and relearn the PCM.

    HELP Viper won't start

    After the battery dies it take the IAC sometime to relearn. If you hold the engine RPMs up it will relearn and should be ok.If it was a alarm issue the engine would still cut off even while holding the gas pedal.

    97 GTS Keeps Blowing PSM/ASD Fuse

    Look at your o2 sensor wiring and make sure its not touching a header. Have seen this before drivers side below and a little back from the power steering pump. is a good area to check first.and if the o2 wires are still straped to the engine mountslook at them as well.

    I cant say for sure with the new owners of viper days. But oin the past if you were a new student in the green or blue run group I would install roll hoops in place of the stock pieces.They are made from 1 3/4 .125 wall roll bar tubing.The insurance company allowed them to be use on the track.If...

    ACR Mods

    You do have to raise the engine.I put a set on a ACR this weekend and it took me about 5 hours to do the full balanger system.I found it easier to raise the engine and remove the starter after that its a piece of cake.

    anyone blow headgasket on a gen 2?

    They usually leak on the drivers side of the timing cover about half way up the cover.I think your safe to say its not a head gasket.the only other thing to keep in mind is that the bearings dont like antifreeze.So depending on how many miles are on the car it might be wise to replace the rod...

    anyone blow headgasket on a gen 2?

    They make a cooling system pressure tester. It goes on on place of the radiator cap and you pump it up to pressurize the system.
