    Transmission - Dexron III or Gear Lube

    I replaced the Mobil 1 ATF in my 95 with AMSOIL gear lube after my local Chrysler tech provided me with a service bulliten recommending synthetic gear lube for early model vipers. I noticed an immediate difference and improvement in shifting quality. However, when the temperature drops below...

    Headlamp Shields

    Got mine from Snak-Oyl, and have had them on for about six months. It took a couple months for all of the moisture and air bubbles to completely clear away. Can't tell they are even on the car. They look great and no signs of yellowing. Hope this helps. :usa:

    Do you think anyone would be interested in a TRADE?

    Sorry guys, I must disagree. The number one Viper is the Gen I car. The 92-95 cars were designed with no frills, gobs of HP and torque and amazing head turning styling. In my opinion, the Gen III is a nice car, however, it has all but lost the uniquiness of what the Viper was originally...

    Viper as a weight loss device

    Get rid of those stock catalytic converters and mufflers and go with high flow cats and upgraded mufflers. The stock exhaust whether it is on an RT/10 or GTS is what is causing the majority of your heat problems. I had the same problem on my 95 RT/10, and switched to Roe Racing high flow cats...

    How Many Gen-1 Original Head Gaskets??

    How many Gen-1 cars are still running original head gaskets? How many miles? Has anyone retourqed the heads to help avoid the "time bomb" head gasket leaks? If so, do you need to remove the rockers? A lot of mixed opinions on this topic, just wondering if I should make this my winter...

    Miles per gallon

    This past weekend heading up to the Traverse City Wine Tour sponsored by the Motor City Viper Organization. I averaged 25.54 mpg. I was amazed considering that a group of us were pushing it pretty hard most of the way. I suspect the upgrades listed below have contributed to higher than...

    Engine stalls?

    Had this same intermittent problem on my 95. Do a search on this site and you will find a lot of suggestions. The tip that someone posted that worked for me involved removing the throttle bodies and adjusting the idle stop screw about 1/4 to 1/2 turn on each throttle body. Not sure if you...

    Can anyone tell me which electronic plug on a 2000 GTS is the harness to disable the skip-shift (1st gear to 4th gear)? There is a harness on the drivers side of the transmision as well as one on the passenger side. I disabled the harness on my 95 per the instructions in the "illustrated...

    Oil Fill Quantity Question

    Craig, my 95 takes 9.5 with filter change. Not sure why the difference in yours. I did notice that being on a level surface makes a big difference in how the dipstick reads. There is as much as a quart difference on the dipstick depending upon whether I backed in or pulled in the garage to...

    Power Steering Cap Fire

    I met Craig at a show a few weeks ago. He showed me the prototype of his new product for the power steering cap. I tried to buy the one he had that very same day. I have since taken delivery of one of his units. Very high quality materials, great instructions for installation which only...

    Plugs & Wires

    I recently installed a set of 8.5mm MSD wires. Used an ohm meter to check each old wire (stock mopar) with only 10,000 miles when removed them. I was surprised at the level of resistance as well as the difference between the wires. The new MSD wires had virtually no resistance regardless of...

    FYI on cutting hole in drivers side "speaker" vent.

    Re: FYI on cutting hole in drivers side \"speaker\" vent. I feel that the "resale" value issue is strictly a matter of personal opinion. Anyone that has driven a Viper in the hot weather should view this as a benefit and improvement to the car. I cut the hole in mine and as far as I am...

    Hood Cut-Out?

    Have the photos, but still having trouble uploading to the gallery/site. It appears that the server is temporarily down. In regards to the Roe Racing HF cats and 3" exhaust, no dyno stats before or after, however the SOTP is definitely improved. Not sure if it is a perception due to the...

    Any problems with drilling the rear for a drain plug?

    Here is another alternative that was previously suggested on the site. Go to your local hardware store and spend $10 on a hand pump for adding or romoving fluids. It comes with different size hozes and fittings for pumping air as well as fluids. I used this to remove differential fluid. It...

    Reduce heat in the engine with the hood gasket away?

    This suggestion was previously suggested by one of the members. I went ahead and removed mine. It is very easy to remove without damaging the rubber or the plastic pins that hold it in. I pulled the gasket away from the pins and then carefully removed the pins with a pliers and reinserted...
