    Dodge Viper stereotypes and sayings

    I am on my 2nd Viper and going on to my 5th Corvette (as soon as this Virus thing is over and GM builds it) and truly appreciate what each of them were and still are to me. Other than the Forums, I have never had anyone say "Clown Shoe" about the Viper. Maybe we should just drop it and let it...

    2002 RT/10 Door Gap

    I am with Barry on this one. I suspect that door droop was fixed causing this misalignment. Several good writeups on this (try search). Most all of us have had to do this alignment due to the droop. It looks like a proper adjustment can fix this problem. Ky

    Air conditioning my 1993 RT-10 Viper

    Would not hurt to give Jon B a call and get his input on how to source the parts or "kit" to do this. If he does not have it, he will probably help direct you to who might. Good Luck. When I lived in FL I could not do without the AC. Ky

    Overheating 97 GTS

    JT, hope you are getting this figured out. I have the Factory service manual and will be happy to send you PDF copies of specific pages it will help. If you do change the pump, I would also recommend changing the antifreeze and through system flush as well. A older car will have a lot of crap...

    Crack in front edge of door

    Does the hold open feature still function for the door? Pretty good chance is that the “spring” has failed and fell down into a position that is causing this crack. When you open and close the door this will occur, so be careful. Jon B sells a fix kit for this. If you have fair mechanic ability...

    California's new Exhaust law

    Why do you need to have an exhaust system that is so loud that it bothers most everyone that hears it. Especially late at night or early in morning? I think we need to improve noise laws. I like any one else on these boards appreciate a finely tuned exhaust system on our performance cars, but...

    Gen 1 New Windshields

    OK. sorry I miss understood. Still, seems like a group buy to entice a supplier to have some windshields produced might work. A cracked windshield can stop a car from being driven, eventually will start hurting sales on Gen 1. Wish you luck on finding one. Ky

    Gen 1 New Windshields

    Currently, I only have Gen II so not effected right now. You say that one of your contacts would sell you two. If you give me the details (who, how much, etc) I would consider buying the second. Or if you post the details maybe someone else on the board here would buy it that has a GenI. With...

    Yes, I used Mopar Limited Slip Additive - PN/ 04318060AB In Gen II. It might not matter is you use Quaife, seems to be standard issue in some Fords. KY

    Windshield Wipers Sword-fight

    Try video again with the windshield wetted down. To me looks like 22 year old wiper motors and blades running on a dry windshield. Which by the way may also scratch a tough to find and replace windshield. Ky

    intermittant electrical fault , help pleeease !!!

    Ok, I would be very suspicious of the battery and it's connections. I would get the rear tire off and have an eyeball on them. While in there I would replace the battery. 8 Years you got your moneys worth. I do have a complete set of 2001 service manuals that include all wiring diagrams. Let me...

    intermittant electrical fault , help pleeease !!!

    I second the Grounding check. I have a C5 Corvette and they are well known for rolling intermittent faults due to grounding points not making clean contact. So, I feel your pain. I do have a couple of questions. What is the status of the battery? New, Old, been sitting with no maintainer...

    "Wheel Dollies"

    I have the same dollies that Jc121285 mentions In his post. I agree with him that these are good for moving and for extended storage. I f I remember correctly I got my set at Harbor Freight, bought them almost 15 years ago and they still are working great. KY

    1997 Viper GTS Oil Change

    I use Mobile one filter P/N M1-204. Book calls for 9 QTs without filter and 10 QTs with filter. Last time on mine was a little over 8 QTs with the filter chg. Been using M1 oil and filters on my Vipers for years no issues.

    AC problems....

    Casper, sounds like a leak. As Badd said above operate the system ( be careful how long you run the car during this check or side sills might be damaged due to heat) and check for bubbles in the sight glass, if you see bubbles need to be leak checked and fixed before servicing again. Also, the...

    Maintenance procedures / instructions

    I would recommend getting the service manual if you do no already have it. The factory manuals are extremely helpful and keep you straight on procedures, torque and specifications for your specific viper that sometimes get lost in online information. Also joining the Viper clubs will unlock a...
