    Oil pressure rise time at start

    Sorry that I cannot supply a stop watch answer...but, my impression is 2-3 seconds for both Gen III and IV. Since I do not start these cars without the ability to do a full drive cycle, I will have to wait for Spring to give a more accurate answer. Hopefully, someone is a warmer climate will...

    Oil pressure rise time at start

    Our stock 03 does not take that long to register oil pressure upon startup...whether using the old 10W-30 Mobil 1 or the newer factory fill (2005) Mobil 1 0W-40. I am not in the habit of driving (therefore not starting) Vipers in ambient temps below 50°F...which posdibly could affect your...

    Help from S-INDY if possible

    Hi, Paul...will be happy to speak with you anytime. Please realize that I am not a mechanic, technician, or engineer. I am just a hobbyist trying to keep our Vipers in good shape. I am very fortunate in that several top notch Viper Techs have shared a considerable amount of info with me over the...

    Battery maintainer/tender?

    I really don't have an opinion as I have not tried one. I will also add that I do use surge protectors on all units...BUT, if lightning is anticipated, I physically unplug them from the wall sockets. Also, I do not use units that automatically apply an amperage load (for desulfanation) when I...

    Battery maintainer/tender?

    Yes...all single units.

    Battery maintainer/tender?

    Well, I am sure you will get many opinions on this. I use Deltran Battery Tender Plus units on all of our Vipers...and, have been doing so since 1998...accumulating just under 1.25 million Viper-tender hours. I like these units as they are quite dependable and have a good safety record. An old...

    Alarm System Gen 1 Viper

    If you like, give me a call sometime when you have a few minutes and I will discuss the fob, the alarm, and the potential issues..along with "the cure". 317-402-9013 In the meantime, don't worry...and, if possible, keep your Viper on a battery tender.

    Not that I recall...though I have not looked for said port.

    XM Radio in all Gen 4 cars?

    Well, we have 2 Gen IV's ...both without nav systems (per advice of dealer based on amount of malfunctions they saw)...neither have satellite radio.

    New Viper owner wheel question

    The white 96 R/T 10's came with blue stripes. You already know about the black ones. The red ones had no stripes. All 1996 GTS's were blue with white stripes...EXCEPT there were 3 that were white with blue stripes for the top executives.

    Pivot bar removal

    Before doing anything radical, I would suggest that you use a real penetrating oil such as Kroil, Schaffer's Penetro 90, PB Blaster...and soak it often over a couple of days. You may be pleasantly surprised.

    Aftermarket side pipes

    It is my recollection that trained, experienced Viper techs tack weld them at the time of initial installation for all of the reasons that you have mentioned. They have a "feel" for the particular material used in said exhausts...and, therefore take into consideration the inherent coefficient of...

    New Battery and now I have no power

    No, that first appeared in 2003...and is very handy. As you do know, you do have an alarm reset switch in your car.

    New Battery and now I have no power

    Those answers are in the owners manual...though the key lock may be problematic if it has not occasionally been used. There are a couple of other possibilities as well. Call me at 317 402 9013 if you like.

    New Battery and now I have no power

    I wonder if it slipped into sleep mode ( hibernation mode). Have you tried the reset switch?
