Re: [DMCForum] Re: ELECTRICAL STARTING PROBLEMS

[Jamie Hamlin <jamiepierce2000@xxxxxxxxx>]

I've noticed that on my new Delorean that the RPM relay does not turn on with
the key in the on postion (like my other Delorean did) it only comes on when I
bump the key for a split second,,, then it runs and turns off like it should...
Is this something I should check into?

Until you get that accumulator replaced, just click the key into the
"ON" position, and then wait until the RPM relay turns off and becomes
silent again. Repeat about 5-7 times, and you should build up enough
fuel pressure to get the car easily started.
