    Thoughts on this Gen II GTS

    Keep this thought...while you and the dealer are diddling each other over a couple of grand, someone may show up and buy it as there are not a lot of solid, 1-2 owner, no-stories Vipers on the market (let alone near you) whose history is both known and verifiable. Best of luck whatever you decide.

    Friend confirmed that this is the car that I know. Update: Good to speak with you, Sir.

    Thoughts on this Gen II GTS

    I would not worry about anything special. I placed a call to a friend who MAY have been owner #2 just to conform car's identity and, therefore my recollections. I expect to hear from him today.

    Big jugs of Mobil1 15W-50 at Wal-Mart

    2 years ago, I had to go to4 different Walmart in the greater Indy area to purchase 18 of the 5 quart jugs on Mobil 1. 0W-40. While loading my cart at the last store, I noticed a manager tag on a person in the old area. I inquired about the seemingly sporadic stocking of this oil. She agreed...

    Looking to purchase

    Goggles Pizano has made a very important point. If you have not driven both a Gen II and a Gen V, you need to do so...or at least ride in them. The Gen V GTS is certainly a nice riding Viper while a Gen II is a little rougher ride. Either Gen can become a handful instantly if one does not keep...

    Running rough after a jump start

    As noted in service manual, Vipers can draw up to 30ma continuously and still be "normal"... more with alarm on. Doing that math, battery CAN drain within a few weeks...depending on ampHr rating. I USED to get 7 years on Sears Diehard Gold batteries in Gen I and II Vipers using a battery...

    Gen 2 Window Regulator Clips: Now 2 Types: Which???

    Power windows in AZ MAY have something to replace OEM.

    Running rough after a jump start

    Off hand, I don't recall using it on a Gen V...but probably worth a try. This throttle relearn procedure is not to be confused with the Electronic Throttle Control reset for Gen IV and V Vipers...encountered when installing new PCM.

    Running rough after a jump start

    You may need to do a throttle relearn. To do this, turn the ignition on to run BUT do not hit the starter. Then, slowly depress the gas pedal to the floor and slowly release it...and complete this process one more time. Turn ignition off, wait a couple of seconds and try to start the engine...

    Wiring question 1994 RT-10

    Still thinking about your 4 wires. In the meantime, is your factory alarm intact? If yes, does it work? If yes, have you considered disabling it?

    Spark Plug Boots EXTREMELY Tight

    ...and, use a spark plug boot puller tool. It is a handy, cheap investment.

    Locked out, no fob, is there a way???

    Your 96 does not have the alarm reset key cylinder in that glovebox. That did not appear until.1998.

    Check engine light on 93 Viper

    Actron and I think Innova had an inexpensive scan tool on the market that had cables to read both OBD I and II vehicles.

    Check engine light on 93 Viper

    As above...but, you may need to do it a couple of times to get the feel of the pauses. The end of the sequence translates to 55. If in doubt, call someone in this thread.

    Battery Replacement Help

    Good to speak with you, twist-a-grip. As we discussed, the two side mount brackets sold with all Gen V's except ACR's and ACR-E's will work fine with your new Interstate T5. You should be able to order the brackets from Dodge for less that $50.

    Alarm set light/does not start

    Given the history and observations you presented, my first step would be to check the battery voltage...but do so after it has been off of a charger or tender at least 30 minutes. After noting that reading and with the volt meter still connected, turn on the headlights to see the effects of a...
