I have an 02 Viper ER. Just took it out of shed and started it up. I noticed the power valves are leaking where the two pieces join. Was wondering if you just change the gaskets or are there O rings you have to change also. Thanks for any info.
Most likely the leak is from the PV shaft seal which ends up as a leak through the weep hole on the underside of the PV housing.
There are o rings also that may be wore.
Gasket where the two join as well as shaft seals to replace. An easy fix. Agree with snomofo above that the shaft seal leak usually drips through the weep hole and makes it look like it's that gasket leaking. I've always replaced the seal and the gasket since I was going to have it apart anyway.
True, if these are leaking it presents itself as a leak where the cable meets the PV return spring housing.
