    weird power window problems

    I have this problem with my hazard lights as well, only the driver side blink. Both set of turn signals work though. I haven't looked into it though since I never use the hazard lights anyway. If you find the source of the problem I'd appreciate you posting up what you found.

    Gas use while coasting

    Don't think I made my question clear. Clearly some gas is still burnt right after you take your foot off the gas, and the link you gave says to shift to neutral to save gas, but the article says that actually uses more gas. When in neutral, obviously the car is using gas, the question is...

    Gas use while coasting

    I just read an article in Dec. Car & Driver and it stated that most vehicles built since 1990 will turn off the fuel when there is no throttle and the engin RPMs are higher then idel, ie when you're coasting to a stop the engine doesn't burn any fuel. The reason the article brought this up was...

    Tire question: Will 315s fit on my 275

    Is there a chart some place to see what tires will fit what rims, and what advantages/disadvantages a given size verses another size tire for a rim size.

    Tire Pressure and Tread Wear question

    I run my tires at the factory recommend pressure and center of the tread wears down faster then the edges. To me, this would indicate that perhaps the recomend pressure is a bit to high and the tire is "ballooning" so that the edges of the tires are not in contact with the road as strongly as...

    Spray on temp bug shield

    Have any of you heard of this stuff or have any exprence with it? It's some kind of spray on coating to protect from bugs and rocks but easily washes off. If it works as stated it'd be nice for long road trip or even track days. Dupli Color - Shield

    Loose screw found in oil pan

    I don't believe this is a common problem but wanted to make everyone aware. I changed the oil and found a small screw stuck to the drain plug. Took the car in and they pulled the oil pan and found that the screen near the bottom of that pan that is held in place by 8 screws, one was missing...

    Texas Area Exotics for October 1st (this Sunday)

    I'd suggest we leave from the mall at 10:30 so I'd say meet up a little earlier, say 10:15.

    Texas Area Exotics for October 1st (this Sunday)

    I think the easiest place would be to meet in the parking lot of the Hulen mall. Near Sears on the Hulen side. 4800 S Hulen Street Fort Worth, Texas 76132-1406 From the mall to MSR is only about 30 miles, so not a very long caravan. :(

    Texas Area Exotics for October 1st (this Sunday)

    I'd prefer to meet up on the south side of Fort Worth, but then that's where I live so I'm probably a little biased. lol If they plan to do parade laps at lunch time I'd suggest we not get to MSR any later then 11:00. It's about a 25 to 30 min drive down 377 from 820.

    HAS DC CANCELLED THE VIPER?

    Yeah, AT&T I think it is, is running an add right now talking about how fast their high speed is and they show close up shots of the Viper. Not real easy to realize it's a Viper at first but those that know a Viper will catch it. I also just saw some other comerical where they mention...

    Wanna see a Viper Drift... and beat a Mustang while doing it?

    I think drifting is cool and all but as a competion it's one of the dumbest automotive sports I've ever seen. A true sport doesn't require a judge to decide who wins. Just my oppion.

    Alarm sence the hatch?

    Thanks guys, it was the strut contact switch. Just slide it back up a little and all is good.

    Alarm sence the hatch?

    Well I just realized my alarm isn't getting armed. The doors lock but the red light doesn't flash. I didn't see a fuse listed in the manual. What else can I check rather easily?

    Alarm sence the hatch?

    I just read a post about some one's alarm not going off when the hood opens and it got me wondering about mine. I plan to check it when I get home but I do know that the alarm does not go off when I open the rear hatch on my '01 GTS. Should it?

    some people

    Having never seen that before I'd wonder about any one that waved at me that way, expecially if they were not in a Viper. lol

    Can anyone recognise this Viper?

    80 on one wheel not a big deal, in traffic, yeah, that's just dumb and asking for trouble.

    Fog Light Removal?

    Can any one tell me how to remove the fog lights from a 2001 GTS? I pulled the cap off and took the 2 bolts out of the top of the fog light but I can't figure out how to disconnect the bolt for aiming the light. Is there a trick to it?

    Viper Maintnance?

    You could always tap and install your own drain plug in the differential.

    Tires too old?

    May not be better places but Discount Tire can handle changing the tire. They may have a lift to get the wheel off the car but they do have the machine to get the tire off the rim.

    Ferrari vs, Viper review

    I agree with 96GTS. My GTS is my dream car. Nothing out there I'd have in it's place. Wouldn't mind having a Ford GT in addion to my Viper though.

    Factory Smooth Tubes

    How much of an improvement do you get with smooth tubes vs the stock ones? Is this one of those mods that alone doesn't do much but with other mods can have a significant effect. And why don't they come with smooth tubes from the factory?

    Poser mods under way !

    I saw some like that once and didn't care for them. But it's your car, do what makes you happy. :)
