    Painted red dash on 94 RT/10?

    Here's a pic of Zippy's (Rob McPhee) dash that I painted. I just used a 3M red scotch brite pad with soapy water to stip off the soft grey paint (it takes an hour or so but won't damage the plastic). I then sprayed it with plastic primer, then epoxy primer, lightly sanded it, then painted it...

    Car cranks but no fire sometimes?

    One possibility would be corrosion at wiring connections (especially near the battery). That's probably the first place I would look. Any disconnection/loss of battery power would set the alarm. They have checked out the battery haven't they? (another possibility).

    Question about Dyno correction factor

    Can someone explain exactly what is the correction factor on a dyno run? (I think I know , but I just want to make sure I understand it correctly). If my dyno sheet says it has a 1.00 SAE correction factor what does that mean? Thanks, Rich

    1994 Side Sill Recall?

    One thing that makes a difference is how many owners the car has had. I was told by a Dodge Service Manager (a friend of mine) that they will only do the warranty replacemant for the first 2 owners and that the outer body perforation warranty was for 7 year 100K miles. The way Daimler is...

    Can Dodge Deny Warranty

    The best thing I can say is "Find another Dealer!" One more warranty and Viper friendly.

    Dyno Results

    Thanks Ben, My best quarter mile times to date are, 12.30 @ 112mph. I'm hoping to do better yet with it, but I think it's going to take some mods to do that (headers and 3 inch exhaust).

    Nail in rear tire,plug repaired,good to go?

    Do Not repair any tire with a plug! It is not an acceptable repair and will usually void the warranty on the tire. The only manufacturer approved repair is a patch on the inside. The problem with a plug is that air can possibly seep past the plug and separate the plies of the tire. Patch It...

    Dyno Results

    The Gateway VCA has a Dyno day scheduled for this saturday, but I decided to take mine to get it dynoed today. I thought I would be better off going to the dyno that I would normally go to (it's about 30 miles closer to me). I'll probably go to the dyno day and just hang out and watch or have...

    Home body work...How do you repair a side sill?

    The biggest problem is going to be that the side sills are made out of stamped aluminum (I think technically they're hydroformed aluminum). The missing piece could be welded in (after being made from scratch), the hard part there is finding someone willing to weld aluminum sheetmetal. Any...

    Re: Ack! I can\'t see!! (no reverse lights) Chris, You'll have to raise it up to get at it, if I remember right it's on the drivers side of the tranny about 3/4s of the way back from the front. Norman, Since I freely admit to being crazy , I don't think anyone would want to say they think...

    Ack! I can't see!! (no reverse lights)

    Re: Ack! I can\'t see!! (no reverse lights) I had the same problem, it was the reverse light switch that had gone bad. It's also possible that if they pulled the trans when they rebuilt the engine they may have forgot to plug the connection back together. Good luck!
