• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Are Spyders super sensitive to road crown?

    road crown drift Hi Here's my story. I had a new 2013 RT. Right outta the box, I had steering issues. Toe out was real bad. I was all over the road. A laser alignment cured it. Upgraded to a 2014 RT and found a drift to the right issue. The dealer tried all sorts of stuff. Lazer alignment...

    F3 idler pulley on an RT

    Belt Vibes Hi, I have the aftermarket tenisoner and it works okay. This is the first time I have heard of the BRP model. But as reducing the vibration on deceleration, it is the top of the belt that tends to vibrate because the wheel works against the engine. I guess the REAL ANSWER would be...

    1330 oil level......

    Overfill I drove a lot of Fords too. Sometimes you had to add before you arrived:roflblack: But seriously, I check before I leave also. I can't get the concept of firing up an engine and running it until it reaches operating temperature and THEN check to see how the oil is....... Guess it's...

    Vibration between 70 and 80 MPH?

    Vibration between 70 and 80 MPH Hi, sounds like you changed the wave length of the belt. And in doing so might have canceled out the initial vibration. Like you added an extra wave. Something like the DOLBY noise canceling headphones. You might have found the answer that folks have been...

    Vibration between 70 and 80 MPH?

    vibrations at high speeds Hi I have had 3 RTs. 12 13 14. They all had vibrations starting around 74 mph. I have a belt tensioner on the 14. It helps but don't cure. I still get the vibs in the 80s. I think there are two issues with the vibrations. When under power, the bottom of the belt...

    Proper Oil Level Verification Procedure on 1330-engined Spyders

    Hi, One would think there would be a better way to check the oil level. Just imagine you come home from an all day into the late evening ride. The next day, you see a puddle of oil under the machine. A closer inspection reveals a slight trail of oil down the drive way and into the road. Now you...

    Found another place for pure gas

    Hi, I noticed that some, not all, WAWA gas stations have ethanol free 89. The stuff is a bit more expensive than Hi Test. I have been using it when I can and my '14 RTL likes it. Mileage-wise it's a little better. It's tough to determine mileage on "straight gas" (ethanol free stuff) because I...
