    Oil Leak

    Roscoe is just north of Rockford, so about an hour and a half from Elmhurst if I remember correctly.

    Oil Leak

    Sounds all too familiar. After a day of driving, and sitting overnight, there would be a dime to quarter sized spot on the shop floor. Occasionally there would be a couple extra spots, but It's likely that those just dripped off the trans plate, as they weren't under the engine. What appears...

    Oil Leak

    Well, when we got it up, the first thing we looked at was obviously the oil filter. It did have a little oil on the bottom of it, but the rest of it was clean, and showed no signs of actually being the leak. It was tight.. There was a little residue on the front left side of the oil pain...

    Oil Leak

    My Dad and I put the Viper on the lift last night in search for an elusive oil leak. We planned on a loose oil filter, or possibly a loose fitting, but did not see either. It's a small leak, which we could not find any cause of, so we cleaned up the bottom side of the car for the time being...

    Shock and Awe !!!

    I was fortunate enough to take the viper to prom. I spent the first 10 minutes or so of the night talking to the school's liason officer ( who kept an eye on it for me :) ), a couple friends, and a couple complete strangers about the car. I had more people than I can remember come up to me...

    WTF....why would someone go to the trouble???

    Oh god.. I am in Rockford, IL. The building in that picture looks damn familiar too. I just can't figure out where I've seen it before. If anyone wants me to check this joke out, let me know where it's at and I'll see what I can do.

    HELP... teens are too close to my bumper

    Well, had it happen today. Have someone in thier early 20's play "chicken" with me today. It wasn't exactly close, but still enough to piss me off. Some people just need a brain. :(

    cars, drugs, drug dealers checking out the Viper, cops, larceny, loans

    I sure hope he didn't even have access to the keys to have the oppertunity to let them take it for a ride!

    HELP... teens are too close to my bumper

    Viperzilla - Luckily everyone around my dad's '01 RT/10 has been fairly good to me. I've only been cut off once ( newer Camaro, driver appeared to be 26-28 ). I've been tailgated a couple times, and had someone play the "lets race" game just about every time I've had it out. Peter - That...

    HELP... teens are too close to my bumper

    robi - I do realize that some are bad driver, I don't dispute that, but I've had more "old folks" with those huge sunglasses cut me off than teenagers. I don't want to turn this thread into a worst drivers thread, so i'll just leave it at that. The M&M trick sounds hilarious. I'll have to...

    HELP... teens are too close to my bumper

    Being 18, I take offence to your "stupid teens" remark. There are a select number from any age group that can be considered bad drivers. It's just that teens always get the bad rep. :( As far as people go, I just anticipate them. Unfortunately it's hard with some of the more colorful...

    Anyone ever try this line

    Hmmmm, makes me wonder how much fuel you could get a Viper to burn in 5 hours...heh...heh... I don't see anything where the buyer takes care of fuel, nor do i see a restriction on milage. The only restriction is that after 5pm, you gotta get your own ride... OOOOooohhhh... poor guy doesnt...

    Anyone ever try this line

    ...not trying to be mean, but just wait until a "rather large girl" makes a bid, and can't fit in the car. :P One of my dad's buddies got stuck getting into the car. He's not only larger, but he's also pretty tall. Got the right leg in, started to swing his back in, head hit the roof, and he...

    New Standards for Front Bumpers??

    Half the time it isn't even "idiot drivers" that hit people. It is the idiot pedestrians who feel they can walk where ever they want, whenever they want. Yes, Pedestrians do have the right of way, but sometimes it is just ridiculous. They feel that even if they do get hit, it's a lucky day...

    Interesting 'spirited' driving observation.....

    Re: Interesting \'spirited\' driving observation..... JT - I'd have to say that the "Viper Code" also works in IL. ;)

    Viper Seat Belt Warning...

    Been browsing since Dec, and finally decided to register yesterday. :) According to the original post, I would assume that '01 Vipers are left out of the seat belt problem. My dad's '01 appears to have the new seatbelts, and 3 out of 3 times I could release it with my elbow. The release...
