    01 GTS radiator hose question

    Go with tension clamps so you're not cutting into the hose, find a nice set of silicone hoses, get rid of that bleed valve setup and go ahead and replace all your coolant with Evans waterless (pressure less) coolant. Your radiator, water pump, heater core and head gaskets will thank you.

    Yet another overheat issue HELP

    as stated above, check your radiator for deposits. And for anyone unfamiliar check out evans coolant, which is a pressureless coolant. I'd also run all aluminum radiators just to eliminate any heat or durability issues

    Napa Green Antifreeze ok? 1997 Viper…

    not a viper owner, but I've been using evans coolant in my cars since I became aware of this. Basically its a pressureless system so in theory it minimizes any engine/coolant related problems (blown hoses/radiators, warping, boiling over, etc). Ran this on my turbo civic, and still use this on...

    Pennzoil Ultra Euro 5- 40

    I wouldn't say it's crap. Many tests would argue ultra is one of the best oils out there, maybe close to amsoil since that's regarded as the #1

    Is there a fix for pushing oil with hard driving?

    Would this be resolved with a better designed oil pan and ensuring your oil levels are correct?

    Sketchy freeway driving

    This 100% + proper alignment, proper tire pressure + no uneven wear on tires. I would also avoid polyurethane suspension components and stick to rubber or hardened rubber

    Troubleshoot tips. Battery loosing voltage.

    I would say swap to a new battery before pulling the alternator. Unless it was stored in a humid area the only things that may go bad for an alternator just sitting there is the bearings or cables, but you already checked the cables. And check the serpentine belt and/or tensioner as the...

    viper frightening revs drop

    I don't know what all entails "all new sensors", but have you tried cleaning or replaced the IACV with a new unit? Last time you changed spark plugs and checked resistance on each spark plug wire to ensure they're within spec?

    rattling noise in neutral

    Could be the throw out bearing and or clutch diaphragm. Do stock throw out hearings generally make a noise? I know for other cars aftermarket ones tend to be noisier. Older clutch diaphragms could be cracking, potentially pieces falling off around the springs which could make sounds on any...

    Searching For A GTS

    $45k is plenty for a well kept low mileage gts, dont listen to those saying expect higher mileage or lots of maintenance.

    Engine Ticking

    Sounds like normal injectors. As long as the sound doesnt get considerably louder as you rev it should be fine You can always test the sound with a stethoscope on each injector. Remove the connector sound should get lower, connect and it'll obviously get louder And oil pressure being normal...
