    Weighed my ACR today

    My '99 ACR weighs 3,375 lbs. That is with about half a tank of fuel; A/C and one CD & radio. Maybe my one CD is really HEAVY man. (W/spare tire too).

    Seatbelt anchor bolt torque specs?

    I am not familiar with the star pattern bolts as used for seatbelt anchors. Could someone give the torque specs when replacing the 5 point recalled seatbelts? (couldn't find a post in the archives dealing with this). Thanks.

    ACR driving lamp delete/vents?

    An excerpt from the specs for the 1999 ACR: "Deletions: Driving lamps (replaced with vents)" I don't have any vents only "plugs". Anyone else ever have the vents on theirs?

    Clutch Pedal-Why So High???

    When you say too "high" are you talking about the length the pedal travels? I ask because I find it a little hard to push the clutch in all the way. The other pedals are then situated too close when adjusted so that I can push the clutch in. If this "Roe" conversion takes care of this minor...

    Cool Viper on Ebay...

    Speaking of 5 point seatbelts, the one seen in the pictures appears to be of the "defective/recalled" type. To me, the black rim look is awful on a black car along with the front fenders which are starting to look like billboards with all that lettering. "What kinda'car is that?" would illicit...

They have to be able to show that the damage/failure was caused by the part(s) installed on your car; otherwise they cannot refuse warranty work on what they "assume" or "think" may have...

    Radiator Fan blinds bystanders

    Almost. After an eyeful (literally) My friend has learned not to stand by the front of the car when it's running. My '99 radiator fan kicks on like a hurricane. It will blow dust & dirt up onto my car almost anywhere I have to come to a stop. It is really irritating to wash the car and have...

    AMSOIL in your Vipers ??

    Mobil 1 has proven itself over and over for at least 25 years. There was even a test where a motor was run for 1 million miles using Mobil 1 oil and did not show appreciable wear. It is priced low at WalMart.

    Friendly wavers smelled my gas?

    I had driven 20 miles and noticed a strong gas odor in my car. I pulled over and got out to look at where the smell was coming from and saw gasoline drenched on the side, back and bumper. I knew right away what I had done. H-E-double hockey sticks, now I really felt stupid. Two cars had...

    Clutch Noise

    I have a '99 and it clunks when shifting into third right after letting out on the clutch pedal. Linkage? Same thing as your's? Or is this just normal clutch/linkage noise?

    Not many vipers around (alaska) here = strange behavior

    I just found out that there are only 16 vipers in Alaska. 7 are RT/10's and the other 9 (including my ACR) are GTS's. Now I know why I have only seen 1 in 9 years. I would have thought there was more, but these figures are from Viper Magazine. I wonder if I will ever be comfortable with all...

    antiseize compound

    Snake Bitten, perhaps I should have clarified that I used the anti-seize compound on a hummer motor. Tom, F&L GoR, what a wiseguy . All I could find was the 1 lb. size for picture purposes. You can purchase it in the "tube". I forgot to add that copper is recommended for sparkplugs due to...
