    96 GTS: Heater/AC: Low Vent Flow Velocity: Possible causes?

    Anyone? My FSM's are with the car in NV and I'd like to get some idea what I'm up against. EXAMPLE: "You have to pull the dash most likely," would mean I'm not going to fix it. Looks like MoparPartsGiant shows parts manual pics... from what I can see, there are 2 vacuum actuators...

    Mail ordering dealer O2 sensors for 96 GTS: any chance getting wrong connector type?

    Seems each generation has a unique connector type. (this sounds very problematic if I need extensions for my long tube headers.) Car in NV and I'm in PA and would like to have parts mail ordered and waiting for me when I show up. I was hoping to order from a dealer that gives discount rather...

    96 GTS: Heater/AC: Low Vent Flow Velocity: Possible causes?

    I'm in PA and will be fixing car in NV so just trying to some homework. Blower motor sounds like it is running properly Proper vents active for Heat and AC but flow is very low No sound of "rushing air" in high speed If I had to guess: Something restricting the blower inlet Blower cage fan is...

    O2 Cable Extensions: Yes or No?

    I have headers and wonder if I should get Cable Extensions for the front OE O2's or just make up the distance with soldered wire? With extensions, now 2 connector integrities required for good signal. Soldering is the BEST. ....but soldering is a RPITA.... EDIT: OH GREAT: "Oxigen travels...

    Any Dodge dealers sell discount? Need OEM O2's.

    I have no cats, so I think junk rear O2's is a non-issue, but the fronts have to be proper. I was thinking of Woodhouse. There are dozens of places like allmoparparts, dodgeparts, moparonlineparts, factorychryslerparts, etc. etc. ad infinitum that I wouldn't trust to get true OE and not MOPAR...

    Need Link or Pics to GTS manual door release

    Yes, through the hatch is how you get in in all circumstances since the manual door release over-rides everything. Only problem is roll bar is over the latch - there is room to operate the latch but now very difficult to even find and contort to operate.

    Need Link or Pics to GTS manual door release

    Friend has to move car, KeyFob not opening car. Need to explain how to get in through back window. Reason I need pic is that the roll bar makes it virtually impossible to reach or see the latch. Just a pic would suffice. I thought it would be an easy internet search but NOTHING - I'm...

    1996 GTS High Idle (2500-3500) at high altitude (8000-9000 ft)

    BARO is probably used to establish backpressure since manifold pressure needs no further characterization. The table is linear and consists of two points - so I'm been told. It is typically disabled for boosted cars which I don't understand.

    1996 GTS Latest Factory Flash Before SCT Flash

    There appears to be more JTEC into on jeep forums(!) I'm leaning towards a "send PCM in" tune from an outfit that has the knowledge to directly program w/o using SCT, etc. - at least that is what I believe can be done and is the best approach. There was some talk that SCT does not flash memory...

    Amazingly, the vast portion of JTEC info is on Jeep forums! Jeep guys are a different class - they just don't have the wealth that people who bot new Vipers have. So they try to do everything themselves. JTEC woes on those forums are very depressing. There was some mention that only the 1996...

    Well, it surely can't be people quit modding them... I don't understand why AEM dropped the V1 P&P Viper ECU given the horrible difficulties of programming JTEC.

    Mine polished up pretty good with classic Bon Ami - then some classic Armor All to seal them.

    For you Baby Boomers who grew up using Craftsman tools.....

    Re: that old Craftsman ratchet: I had a 3/8 swivel head fail and Sears replaced it with the cheapest one they had - in fact, they had a box of the under the cash register since the cheap ones fail all the time. They do make a premium ratchet that is actually comparable to the old one, however...

    1996 GTS Latest Factory Flash Before SCT Flash

    I think I have my first firing solution: Correct all sensor/wiring issues with car. Install Widebands and a Scan Gauge II (timing, TPS, and 2 others - need IAC but may not be an available parameter) Dyno pull with A/F (no timing data since that is basically what a canned tune chooses for you)...

    1996 GTS Latest Factory Flash Before SCT Flash

    Steve-Indy, Who or what is Prefix? Regarding Dan, I hate taking up a tuner's valuable time. I am in the market for a canned tune and specifically not a custom tune - my car has 85k on it and I would not 100% certify that a custom tune would be tuning out some wonky sensor that's not...
