Nice Viper !!
My standard comments to questions such as yours are:
1. State your current location as it MAY help.
2. State name and location of dealership from whom you bought the car.
3. Run a CARFAX to see locations where the Viper was registered.
4. Google the VIN.
5. After all of...
For STREET DRIVING, most stick with Mopar ATF+4 for the transmission.
IMPORTANT INFO on differential fluid from one my posts about a year ago:
"...INTERESTINGLY, this Castrol Syntrax Limited Slip 75W-140 has now disappeared from many Mercedes dealerships…and, from Castrol’s online product...
Ed, if you are the same Ed who left a voicemail for me today...SORRY...but the number you stated ( that also shows up on my phone) cannot be reached. One gets a recorded message that the call cannot be completed from Verizon. When trying to call you from a land line, AT&T states that your...
My kit came with a ton of cables in a huge DRB III case when I purchased it from Tech Authority in 2008 or 2009.
I only use 2 cables...one for OBD II, and a "Y" cable for OBD I where one end goes to the OBD I port and the other end of the "Y" goes to the positive terminal under the hood to...
I would check for fuel pump voltage at relay, then jump relay sockets pins to see if relay bad...before I went too far. Have you tried to locate fuel pump fuse...and, tried new fuse?
Sorry for your starting issue, especially considering upcoming move.
If you have the time, you might further define/expound upon the statement:
"but the car doesn’t want to start."
Either way, best of luck to you !!
I have had to do it a BUNCH of times in a car to car fashion. The key is to have a set of large gauge jumper cables...and disconnect as soon as possible upon startup to avoid damage to the donor car or the recipient car. Just be aware that if your Viper's battery has developed a short, it may...
You might get more interest in this post if it was in the Gen I and II section.
Have you tried a CARFAX using the full 17 digit VIN? That could possibly lead you to the current general location...city/state. At that point, you may want to contact the local Viper club (s) on the outside chance...
Gary, give me a few minutes and I will look for a good diagram in the service manual for you. Once I find it,, I can text it to you once you shoot me a text at 317-402-9013. Hopefully, you have all of the fasteners.
Aside from whatever "look" that you ultimately choose, the point made by SA Heat concerning balanced aero, the appropriate spring/shock combo, and handling is a REAL ISSUE at speed.
As I recall, when the 2010 ACR Convertible was tested in the wind tunnel with the standard ACR wing, "it flew"...
It appears to me that the1998 PCM is the slightly earlier European version and that the 1997 is a USA version.
However, I cannot tell for certain about the PCM from your car marker "790" as it does not match the parts manuals.
You may end up picking one (preferably on trial) and hoping that it...
PCM's ("Module,Engine Controller) listed in the older, original parts manuals:
1996 JTEC USA 4763639
1996 JTEC Europe 4763808
1997 Federal, Canada 04848702AC
1997 Europe 04848703AC
1998 USA 04854704AC
1998. Export 04854706AB
The problem is whether or not performance issues or CEL's...
Hi, Anders...sorry about your difficulties.
Just to better understand your situation, exactly what year/model is your Viper ?
I am asking since the thread title asks about 94 and 96, then the post asks about 96 and 98.
For instance, if your Viper is a 1996 GTS, I would lean toward buying the...
A portable battery pack is preferable to a running donor car in terms of avoiding damage to either car.
The NOCO battery packs that I have seen are labeled 1000 -3000 amps...which should be enough.
But, if you have a bad battery (regardless of age), the best thing to do is to change it to a...
If I understand your post correctly, my first question concerns the status of the car's battery. Did you fully charge the battery? If so, did you test the battery voltage to see the level of charge?
Did you replace the battery with a new, tested battery? Did the car run when you first got it or...
In my opinion, the safest and easiest way is to connect a portable battery jumper pack under the hood at the designated positive and ground jump posts...as outlined in the owners manual (particularly on 1993.5 through 2002 Vipers where direct access to the battery is not available). Just...
