I had to get my Duramax towed. Cause K&N filter oil from the air filter had caused the Mass air flow sensor to read incorrectly. Aparently this is a commong problem. GM has issued service bulletin about this problem and the same problem has been experienced on Fords also. I will no longer install K&N air filters on any vehicle with a mass air flow sensor.
Luckily the Viper does not have a mass air flow sensor. I even wonder if the air intake temp sensor is affected by oil getting on it. You may want to take electric contact cleaner and clean your air intake temp sensor.
