    First time Viper owner, 94 RT/10

    My first Viper was a yellow 95 RT10, at that time that was the coolest car ever to hit the road, I did a lot of mods to the engine,it was fast as hell, I have a 99 GTS now and I love it, but had the most fun in my life with the gen 1 .

    Forged engine noise

    Gen 3 engines were not forged from the factory, but if you modified it with forged pistons,crank,rods, ect yes they are more noisy than cast engines especially during warm up till the pistons expand in the cylinders

    2001 GTS ACR electrical issues

    That sounds like a ground issue, check all the body grounds. Also check all the bulbs, some times a turn signal or brake light bulb will short out and bring power to the ground side of the bulb socket, so check all your lights and make sure they are all working.

    02 hood won't stay open

    Did you also clean the hing assembly, if they are lubed the hood falls back down, this is one of the rare times that having something lubed makes things worse, when the hinges are dry they make enough resistance to keep the hood from coming down. And if you have to lube them use a silicon spray...

    All great advice from everyone, and no one is trying to scare you, we just do not want you to get hurt, so we are just making sure you be careful, like mopar said you can drive it like a Honda if you want. But I will admit my first Viper a 95, I was insane, I would lay down miles of rubber all...

    The "mileage question"

    Just my 2 cents, had a shop for 40 years, and I know a lot about all cars, Trust me its better to buy a car with a thousand miles that sat for 20 years in a garage, than a car with one hundred thousand miles, the TLC that the car with low mileage needs is minor stuff, compared to the high...

    I had to laugh, my Viper is as perfect as you can get, but every little mark on her, which I only know where they are was done by me. Some times being to careful can back fire.

    WOODHOUSE DODGE!

    Woodhouse is the best dealer in the US, I bought my 99 GTS from BOB himself a great guy. The dealers in NJ where I lived at the time all suck eggs, had lots of cars and trucks shipped up to me from Woodhouse just because the dealers by me were so bad. Thanks to BOB Woodhouse I was able to enjoy...

    Low Coolant In Overflow??

    Now you know why Vipers come with turkey basters behind the front seat. This clears up a long standing question I had with Dodge, since I received my Viper near Thanks Giving , I just assumed it was a Thanks Giving present from Dodge.

    Crankshaft Pulley too far in (misaligned)

    I am glad it all worked out, good job. The reason the balancer runs in to the crank is because its spinning on the crank grinding down removing the metal inside the balancer. By pinning it that will eliminate it from spinning, even if the bolt loosens up a bit.

    Crankshaft Pulley too far in (misaligned)

    Run a good tap and die set on the crank and bolt, if you can you should buy a new bolt, that is a common issue on that year Viper. Check with Jon B at the Viper store and see if he sells the pin kit that would fix it for good, if not he will point you in the right direction.

    1993 Gen 1 good news.

    I think Gen 1 and gen 2 Vipers will be worth a lot of money as they get older, back in the late sixty's You could buy a 63 corvette for next to nothing, my brother bought a 67 Vett in 1974 both were Mint and cheap. Look at what they are worth now, and there were thousands of them made, more...

    P0432 @ 22,354 miles

    The O2 sensor is just like a spark plug with a wire and electrical plug at the end of the wire, if you can change a spark plug you can change an O2 sensor.

    ACR GTS-R is it worth buying and reviving!!

    Wow someone paid 49k for that pile of bent up junk, that is amazing to me, had a shop for 40 years and the work that the car needs if done right will cost way more than the car is worth when it was new. Now if you really like the car and its just something you gotta have and you do not care what...

    P0432 @ 22,354 miles

    On the more advanced diagnostic computers you can read what that rear O2 is doing and then you can make an accurate decision on what needs to be replaced the O2 or the Cat.

    K&N Filter Cleaning Frequency?

    I all most forgot one more important step in drying, if you hold the filter on one end swing the filter downward, if done right you can get most of the water out just through centrifugal force, after 10 or 15 fast swings its pretty dry. I know not dry enough to oil but greatly speeds dry time. I...
