    AMSOIL vs MOPAR (Transmission Fluid)

    Thats when I was running ATF+4 or Tremecs. Not sure I will be able to locate it. Tons of bad / unsubstantiated information out there. My tag says Dextron III so thats whats going in it. Even read 1 post saying Vipers never came with Paper Blockers like other cars.

    AMSOIL vs MOPAR (Transmission Fluid)

    Read the Datasheet on Castrol's site and it is Dextron III or at least that's what I have interpreted from in.

    AMSOIL vs MOPAR (Transmission Fluid)

    Gotcha. Lots of miss information out there!!! My lift is free this weekend and I am going to dump the Tremec fluid and going back to Dex III. Always felt the Trans shifted way better with ATF in there. Are you running the Valvoline? Dex / Merc?

    AMSOIL vs MOPAR (Transmission Fluid)

    Found this post on the Vette forum.. THE Word" on 1998-2002 Manual Trans Lubricant The question about whether one should run synthetic ATF or even a non-ATF gear lube in the f-body's Borg-Warner/Tremac 6-speed Trans has been bouncing around. Mark DeCarlo, co-organizer of CNYF, has tracked down...

    AMSOIL vs MOPAR (Transmission Fluid)

    So looking at the "The Most Common T56 & TR6060 Fluid Questions article", it states non Synthetic ATF fluid for the 6060 and T56. My sons owners manual for his 2010 SRT-8 Challenger states ATF+4 which is synthetic and his car has the 6060 in it. Dodge has a service bulletin for NGR (Common in...

    Tag on T r a n n y says Dextron III. I believe replacement is ATF+4

    AMSOIL vs MOPAR (Transmission Fluid)

    I know Dodge had a Service Bulletin to switch to Gear oil for the people that complained about NGR. So that's why I went Tremec fluid.. I will most likely be switching back to ATF because I liked the way the Trans felt with ATF better.

    AMSOIL vs MOPAR (Transmission Fluid)

    Steve, Great write-up. In my Gen 2 (non 6060 Trans but a T56), I was running ATF+4 and switched over to Tremecs Gear oil (had slight NGR which never bothered me). The Gear oil doesn't shift as nice as the ATF. Was wondering if I switched back to ATF (which I am thinking of doing anyways) and...

    Clutch or something else??

    Correct, has a MAP mounted on the intake where as a MAF would be before the throttle body. still can be cleaned.

    Clutch or something else??

    If the car was at running temp, it should be in closed loop. You can clean the MAF but "typically" if its dirty, LTFT would show positive.. But clean it anyways. Things I typically do to a car with some miles is clean the MAF AND throttle body(s) / blade(s). You would be surprised how a dirty...

    Clutch or something else??

    You never answered my question about the readings.. Was it in Open loop or closed loop.. Hugh difference. Open loop might explain -20% on both banks.

    Clutch or something else??

    Very important to have a Scanner that does graphing!!!! I went out and bought a an XTool X9 pro with a Borescope. Already paid for it in troubleshooting. As you say Dean, you need to graph, very important. I had to go to the extent of driving my buddy's Acura MDX and record the drive for 20...

    Clutch or something else??

    LTFT is definitely negative. Sounds like your running too rich. Leaking Injectors, both banks? Not enough air entering? Engine running at steady speed, you want to see as close to 0 as possible.. Older engines wont be as close as newer / less mile engines.. Surprised your not popping a code...

    Gen 2 overheating in Texas sun… go figure

    As Dean said, burp. Questions.. 1) What temp is the Radiator, both upper section and lower section when running hot 2) Are you getting heat out of the car when you turn the heat on when hot? 3) When your temp gauge goes to 250, does it go down in temp and go back up? 4) Is your Fan kicking on...

    Can we verify sequence of 1992 Vipers?

    Hey Dean, so the very first 96 production car rolled off on 5/6/96 My Build is MDH: 051708 So my car was built 11 days after the first production car that came off the line. Dean, do you have the document written by Chris Green?

    Can we verify sequence of 1992 Vipers?

    The above responses are spot on, they were built in batches. However, you can find out if its close to 207 by looking at when they started production of the 92's and then looking at your build date. That's what I did with my 96 GTS because I am VIN 33 and my cars build date is 2 weeks after...

    Looking at a 94 with some issues. Need opinions.

    Pictures of hood. Besides the hood being painted, how is the rest of the paint on the car? Was the entire car repainted and looks like crap?

    1996 Window Outer Door Glass Weatherstrip

    Yes, leave them, just one of a few things unique about the 96 and due to keeping it original, I personally wouldn't touch them.

    1996 Window Outer Door Glass Weatherstrip

    In 97 they went 1 piece. Unless they are junk, don't touch it.

    1996 Window Outer Door Glass Weatherstrip

    96 was 2 pieces, your pic is correct.
