    06 coupe with engine concern

    Well I finally got around to taking Chuck Tator's advice and install the front O2 sensors. I bought one of those special split sockets for the sensor. Then realized on the left side the starter is really in the way to get a socket on it. I just put an open end wrench 7/8 on the sensor and...

    06 coupe with engine concern

    I did talk with Chuck this morning and his first thought was the front O2 sensors. I ordered them 80 dollars each and a socket with a slot for the wire. But I know they will be difficult to get out. Anyone have experience with getting them out any tricks thanks again Richard

    06 coupe with engine concern

    thanks for the help. It does it at a steady speed. Most noticeable in first or second but it occurs at higher speeds but just when you hold it at 2000 to 2200 rpm. Car has always done it but never this violent. It has never been a car that you can really cruise at 20 or 30 mph unless you...

    new michlin sport ZP

    Hey Jon I value your opinion but being 70 I can't take the chance of screwing with a flat inflator packages only work half of the time. At least with the run flats I will get my friend to a safe location or home.. I thought that maybe the new design Micelin run flat might not follow all...

    My Viper is a 5 speed....

    I have the 3.55's and it is still uncomfortable at 75 in 6th. I can feel the engine is just not happy much under 2000. If I look in the rear view mirror I see a slight vibration in 6th. If you are changing gears go to 373 not 355 not big enough diff wish someone on here would have told me...

    Why not have control

    Response to Chuck Do you think having someone die in a limited production Viper every two weeks is good for the Marque you are wrong. Us people that can't handle a car like a viper, you say should go buy the other brand and leave you and your car alone. Just think if we all did that...
