    I think (hope!) my clutch finally went...help?

    BLUF: Clutch doesn't seem to be disengaging when I push the pedal,and I can't seem to get the transmission in reverse, even with the engine off. Long version: So, I backed my car out of the garage this morning, and couldn't get it out of reverse. I had to shut it down, shift into 1st, then...

    Fuel filter help!

    Ok, I know it's been asked a thousand times, but how the heck do I get the fuel filter disconnected? I read to use the quick disconnect tool, which I have, but I'm still having a hard time. Do I push the plastic collar piece towards or away from the filter? And at the same time, push the line...

    Ok, what is this?

    On the passenger side of the car, immediately in front of the firewall, there is a flat horizontal panel with some hoses going into it. Mine is covered with a thin (and tacky) coat of oil. This can't possibly be normal, can it? Does anyone know what it is, and why it covered with sticky oil...

    Virginia Viper owners...who wants free beer?

    Hello everyone! I bought my Viper in February, then moved to Newport News, VA in April, then promptly put it in storage - I am in the Navy, and it was time for me to meet the ship out at sea. But soon it will be time for me to come home, and I have a lot of maintenance I want to accomplish...

    Just changed plugs - now I have another question...

    Ok, so I just finished changing my plugs and wires; thanks again to Chuck Tator for the quick delivery and great price on the new wires! I put in Champion 412s and OEM wires. The good news: it took me less than an hour and a half from start to finish, my first time! I was worried it would...

    Noise when I accelerate...normal?

    Sometimes, when I get on it a little, I hear a squeaking/screeching sound from under the hood. It's not at full throttle, and it's only for a few seconds, but it still worries me. I have only owned my Viper for a couple weeks, so I don't know what is normal and what isn't. I have driven 2...

    a couple of newb questions...

    1. What is the trunk of my 2000 RT/10 supposed to look like? Any mat, carpet, anything? I have the spare, and underneath it, the jack. There is also a strap that runs across the tire from each side of the spare tire well. What is that for? It doesn't really hold the tire down; the...

    Where to get wheels polished?

    So after washing the car today, it is apparent to me that the wheels have been neglected...severely. Is there somewhere I can send them to be polished, maybe take the little curb rash off, but mostly just get shiny again? Matt

    Ok, I give up. Help me with my stupid question!

    .....what's a creampuff? a) Newer Vipers with the lighter pistons. b) Gen II Vipers with windows. c) None of the above. I have been reading this for a couple of weeks and it's really bothering me. I know, I am an idiot noob, non-Viper owner, but pretty soon I will be an idiot noob Viper...

    Which Viper is right for me?

    Hi all, let me start by saying that this is not a "Plan to buy a Viper in the next century" post. I have wanted one as long as I can remember, and the time is finally right. I am 29, and I want a Viper when I turn thirty. I have owned many performance cars, mostly Ford-powered, including my...
