    Viper, cars, motorcycle stuff on YouTube

    Hi everyone, A couple years ago I started a YouTube channel, and ever since I became a Viper owner a few months ago, I've been doing more and more Viper/car/motorcycle videos. So, in case anyone wants to see videos about a '94 RT/10 and the things I get up to with it, feel free to check it...

    Where Are They Now: Dodge Viper “Grailkeeper” Herb Helbig

    Ha, good 'ol Maine...always a pleasant surprise when my home state unexpectedly comes up with stuff like this.

    Sure thing! I'm no Viper expert, but I've definitely been getting a better feel of the car these past few months.

    Hi there, I've been a 94 RT/10 owner since March, and though I wouldn't say my idle is rough, it's definitely...rumbly? As in it fluctuates, it vibrates, things rattle occasionally, it's something you are much more aware of than a "normal" car. Do you know when it last got a tune up?

    New question...does anyone know what this knob does? It's under the steering wheel, behind the lower dash cover...can't see it unless you get into the foot well (I discovered it when trying to find my clutch switch).

    Well, looks like I was over-optimistic on that one...doesn't seem to be easy access to the other end of that wire. Maybe it's less accessible on 1st gen/'94 than others.

    I'll see what I can find on the other end then

    So I got down into the footwell to try and adjust the clutch switch, but I couldn't find anything to adjust... Above are a couple pics. The S-shaped piece is the clutch pedal, and it is connected to the copper-colored piston/rod. Is the clutch switch hidden somewhere else? It's a very cramped...

    Yeah, if I can find my way well enough, I'll try to adjust it/bend it accordingly.

    Awesome, thank you so much for this info--this is going to be one of the first things I tackle.

    Here's a close-up of what it looks like:

    It could be, but it's weird--I see some sort of a clear coat/membrane type of layer near the edges, and the darkness itself looks somewhere between weird paint and aged discoloration. But thanks for the info--now I have more confidence in seeing if I can get it removed.

    Bueller? Anyone have insight on this? Sorry to bump this post, just trying to figure out what these dark patches are, if they can be removed, etc.

    So as people may have noticed in my pictures from a couple posts ago, there is black shading in front of the exhaust hump (and on the front of the exhaust cover, but isn't visible in the picture I posted). At first I thought this was plastidip the previous own put on (they plastidipped the...

    Yes, definitely jealous. Our temps have been climbing, which is nice, but it has left the roads an absolute mess. Actually bent a wheel a few weeks ago, the roads are so bad from frost heaves and plows. Maine summers are gorgeous, but the trade-off is a grueling winter.

    I am SO jealous! Definitely one thing I don't like about Maine.

    Roads are too crappy!

    Alright, so after getting over a bug, I'm finally getting around to posting some more pics--I took way too many, so this is just a sampling: Super excited to get this thing on the road, summer can't get here soon enough.

    You are right, found a brief mention of it in the owner's manual--thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

    Alright, thanks, I'll put that on the list. Gen I for me, and that *is* an Autoform top--nice piece.

    New question: does anyone else have to crush their clutch against the floor in order to get their Viper to start? When I tried starting the Viper to do some garage re-maneuvering, I pushed the clutch to the floor, but the vehicle wouldn't start. Only after I put as much weight against the pedal...

    I've had my hands full, but yes, I did snap one after first pulling it into the garage--let's see if this works...

    Hmm...I was hardly moving the first time, and the second time I was sitting completely still. I was going to look it up in owner's manual, but it hasn't gotten to me yet.

    Well, I *finally* took delivery today! Pictures to come soon. New question: while maneuvering it into my garage, an upwards orange arrow lit up on my central display...overheat warning?

    So, any fellow Viper owners in Maine or New England?
