    Fuel leak out the filler neck when autocrossing

    Just changed the hose down to my tank because it was leaking, 2000 rt/10. Common issue on your 93 is a rubber grommet that leaks. Type in 1993 Dodge Viper fuel tank grommet on google and you should find one.

    GTS ACR will not rev above 3500 rpm, what's could be wrong?

    I was trying to help out HorusRa. I was sharing what I experienced in the past. I already fixed my problem a while ago lol. Just sharing what did happen to me and what could have been a problem to plug a set of cats by running to rich, but never happened to mine. Caught the problem right away :1up:

    GTS ACR will not rev above 3500 rpm, what's could be wrong?

    Redtanrt10 could be right to with the plugged cats. If you got codes, post emm up. I had some o2 sensor codes because of long tube headers. Had to relocate the upstreams closer to the block. They weren’t heating up fast enough and the car wouldn’t go into closed loop mode, causing my car to just...

    GTS ACR will not rev above 3500 rpm, what's could be wrong?

    Check your spark plug wires and make sure they’re not lose, cut or broken going to any of the plugs. Check engine light? Codes? Need more info to help.

    Hood paint cracks

    The cracks end up right where guys try to close the hood by the intake. Mine has a hair line about 3 inches long and is hardly visible. My experience working in a body shop for years, ain’t no big deal because it’s hardly visible, but if your a perfectionist it’s all bad. This is old fiberglass...

    Close-out panel fix

    Forgot to mention I just put a bead of urethane and popped rivets back into mine. Would like to see the u nuts in action if you go that route. Post some pics, good work SS

    Close-out panel fix

    You should be good using those but as far as using those will cause gaping which is very minimal. Now I’m saying very minimal for any kind of water leak or anything. Blind rivets pull tight but so do nutserts, get creative. Use a touch of urethane to maximize sealing. It’s all preference which...

    The "mileage question"

    I have over 67 thousand on my 2000 and it runs fantastic. Don’t be scared to put miles on it. Change the oil, check the coolant, and most importantly!!! Check your coolant pressure cap! They do fail and for me it was a nightmare. Other than that, those are the main things in my opinion if you...

    old age problems

    Gotta take the whole front off, you want to clean the surfaces where the o rings will go. And while you got it all off, blow everything out in the condenser and radiator for better air flow

    old age problems

    . Take your front bumper off and replace the 2 O rings to the ac condenser, common problem. Recharge the system properly by yourself or from a professional. Recover whatever is in the system, pull a vacuum, add oil, recharge system. That was the problem with mine. Blows ice cold now. Hope...

    Battery Dies - Old LoJack System?

    Fun fact to, if you hit the lock button on your key fob and hear 3 beeps, that means something’s left on or drawing power. If you hear 1 beep, that means your good. :1up:

    Battery Dies - Old LoJack System?

    Do a parasitic draw test on the fuses under the steering wheel first. See if anything is pulling and if it is, look into that system where someone could have tapped into and that could be the problem. I had a parasitic draw from mine and found stereo guys tapped and crossed the door lock...

    Air Conditioner blowing warm air

    Take the front bumper off and replace the condenser O rings. Replaced mine, recovered what was left, pulled a vacuum on the system, added oil, charged system. Blows ice cold. O rings on that ac condenser are public enemy number 1.

    Pressure cap failure consequences...

    Running the car like normal and really got on it in 1st up to 4th and noticed the temp climbing past normal. Gauge got to 250 point, obviously something was wrong. Pulled off, coolant spattered all over my passenger side and fender well. Knowing my pressure cap failed, I got a new one. Testing...

    01 GTS Wont start

    Sort of a similar topic, but I’ll share it anyway involving the topic of the alarm. I’ve had a crazy wiring journey with my 2000 rt10 due to an aftermarket stereo system put in it from the previous owner. Fixed that mess and my alarm works now. If I locked the car before it beeped three times...
