My viper has been hard starting since the day one. This is only after it sits for an hour after having been ridden. So I took it in for the fourth time and a few things were done, but it took 10 days to fix. It went in on a Monday and I called on Thurs. They said carbs were off and being worked and I asked if they would call when ready. On Sat no call so I did and still not ready. Mon I called and said they wanted to keep it one more day but I could pick it up Wed. This all seemed strange to me since when I took it in they were short on room. OK, I get the sled home and start it up and every thing normal. Later in the day I see it is leaking anti freeze on garage floor, but didn't see where. The next day I get to checking more and I see it is coming from a bolt on exhaust manifold. So I took it in again and explained this to service manager, but he didn't have time to look. Well, I picked the sled up today and hose clamp to carb was replaced. No it is is not leaking after letting it run. I did a compresson check and clutch side is 100psi while other two are 108 and 110. My thoughts are they started it up and forgot about it.
