    OMG! Viper running terrible!! Hard to describe symptoms but I'll try

    OMG! Viper running terrible!! Hard to describe symptoms but I\'ll try A little background info. I've had my 99 RT/10 (35k miles now) for about 4 years and it's always had this intermittent problem. It has probably only happened about 5 times since I've owned it so have never taken it in...

    What do you do for inspection time??

    I've gotten lucky the past couple of years and the stations let me drive my own car during the inspection. What do you guys do? I'm afraid that this year I'll show up and they won't let me drive me own Viper. Anybody in Austin recommend a good place to get my baby inspected? Thanks!

    Online source for stock spark plug wires?

    I've done a search and finally decided that I would like to replace my spark plug wires with factory ones. Where is the best "online" source to get replacements? I was changing the plugs and saw how bad a shape my wires are in so have decided to replace them.

    Rich Detert short shifter install problem

    I cannot for the life of me get the stock shaft off. The stock knob and it's "immediate" shaft comes off with no problem. I've removed the whole center panel and to get to the 19mm bolt requires an almost impossible angle to get to. I have a Generation two and it seems that his website...

    DIY Hoist for RT/10 Hard Top

    Anybody have pics of their setup? And even better, a write up on how? I swear that my girlfriend acts like she is going to DIE everytime I ask her to help me take it on and off. I've tried to take it on and off by myself but the top is just too big and bulky for me to handle safely. I garage...

    Tire Pressure Monitoring System

    I've done a search and it seems that many of you are partial to the SmartTire system that is available. How does it work and where is a good place to mount it? Does it "beep" if there is a problem or do you just have to visually look at the system to monitor pressure? Right now I spend a...

    Hood occasionally "pops open". Very annoying/embarrassing

    Hood occasionally \"pops open\". Very annoying/embarrassing I can never catch it in the act. It's pretty embarrassing driving down the road with my hood partially popped open. It will be in that first "click" position when you usually pull the hood lever halfway down (passenger side popping...

    Any tricks to installing smooth tubes?

    I'm having a heck of a time trying to install some nice shiny new tubes from JonB. I even loosened the air box, connected the tubes to airbox, then "tried" to connect them to the throttle bodies. This did not work. Should it be this hard to install these? Or do I just need to hit the weight...

    Mysterious blow out on highway without the "pop" (Pics)

    Mysterious blow out on highway without the \"pop\" (Pics) Weird experience a few days ago. I was on the highway going about 60 and started to smell that really awful burnt rubber tire smell. I looked around and figured it was probably some POS car somewhere around me because it could not have...

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2432510214&category=38634#ebayphotohosting What are you thoughts on the above kit? I was looking at getting just the chrome smooth tubes but then I saw this other kit on ebay for a few more bucks. I vaguely remember a post...

    My driver's side door won't stay open.

    My driver\'s side door won\'t stay open. What gives? It's pretty embarrasing having a 50k car and the damn door won't even stay open. My passenger door "locks" into place just fine. Is this a common problem with Gen II RT/10's? If so, what can I do to fix this?

    10" Sub install in 99 RT/10

    10\" Sub install in 99 RT/10 I've done a search and it seems that installing a 10" sub in the passenger footwell area is the way to go. I know that the RT/10 isn't meant to have a "thumping" sound system but I figure something is better than nothing. I already have a 10" Kicker Solo Baric...

    Proud new Viper owner saying Hello! (Pics Inside)

    Hello, I have been lurking around this forum for months while shopping around for my dream car. It sure has been a looooong journey. Lets put it this way, I freaked out when I discovered that Gen 1's did not have windows. Since that day, I have discovered so many more exciting things about...
