Subject: Re: Door alignment
I beg to differ from you,But the CORRECT answer is YES,you can remove
the doors,(and reinstall)WITHOUT removing the Torsion bars,it IS far
more dangerous for somebody who has never removed a torsion bar,to
try to remove a torsion bar,just to remove the door,I have done it
this way since 1982,and NEVER had any problems,THE main thing is to
remove the strut and THE FOUR BOLTS ONLY(the horz.bolts) that go THRU
THE HINDGES(the swivel part of the hindges) and Directly into the
door DO NOT UNDER ANY CONDITION REMOVE ANY BOLTS THAT ATTACH THE
HINDGES TO THE BLACK BODY OR THE(2) BOLTS THAT hold the torque on the
torsion bar,You must also remove the T panel to disconnect the wiring
harness from the door,If anybody doubts this I can post a picture in
the files section of one of my Deloreans WITH the doors removed,and
the struts still in place under torque.Also the door MUST BE IN THE
FULL OPEN POSITION(SUPPORTED)to be able to remove the door.

Subject: MODERATOR Comment on Torsion Bar Topic
This thread is a great example of the angst that moderators sometimes have
when a difficult topics hit the list. We have two disparate opinions on
whether doors can be removed with or without removing the torsion bars
first. Both are mechanically correct. Both processes are DANGEROUS to the
uninitiated. The moderation philosophy has been NOT to try and judge
technical merit of posts (with a few obvious exceptions), but to let the
list correct itself. This is what is going on here.
So - as always please take the time to judge for yourself whether or not you
are qualified to perform any procedure dialoged here. The moderators, the
list, and anyone else but yourself cannot be held responsible for the safety
of body parts (yours or your DeLorean's)!

It is recomended that the cover to the fuse box is left off of the
fuse box to prevent the fuses from overheating. That's why there was
never a need to reproduce them.

Subject: Re: removing fuel pump
Hi Andy,
The electrical connections that you see connect to the fuel pump. That
thing beneath the water is the pump. I saw the same thing about a year ago
when I replaced my fuel pump.
It's easy to take out - just remove the large boot that has the fuel pump
sitting in it - it just slides off of the fuel tank (after you loosen a few
clamps of course). Just be sure your tank is low on petrol when you do the
job, else you'll have more difficulty/frustration when you're putting the
pump back in. Also, take care when removing the pump and note how the
baffle and pickup line inside the tank are situated - this will help when
you put it all back together.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask and I'll see if I can remember
the answer.
Good luck!
Travis

Subject: Re: Re: Gold DeLorean - Plus Torsion Bars
Jim,
The door torsion bars are made of stainless steel. The brown spiral lines
are a result of the Cryogenic manufacturing processing. These lines are
easily removed using a multipurpose cleaner such as Westley's Bleche-White.
Keep in mind that scratching the torsion bar with a sharp instrument could
cause the bar
to fracture.

Subject: Re: Vanity Plate Ideas
Hey all!
I got my plates in 1996 (for a car I don't even have yet!) and went through a
few different ideas with my
friendly license bureau clerk.. I finally wound up with "STNLSS". I liked
the idea of a plate that focused
on the car, rather than the driver, and it was one of the two significant
things I could get for the car
(the other being GULWNG, of course, but already taken by a 300SL)
Now Ontario, Canada has 7 and even 8 digit plates available for the first
time.
So many possibilities.......so few cars *l*
Just wanted to put in my two cents. Happy motoring everybody!

Subject: Fw: Gold DeLorean
I was there when the Gold DeLoreans were build at the plant in Dunmurry .
They hand picked a team of workers from the shopfloor.
A special crib was built just off the shopfloor .
A firm of security guards was employed to protect the project .
All in all it took 2 weeks to build the Gold cars.I can only remember 2 Gold
cars being make there may be have been 3 but I don't think so.
These cars were built 2 years before the plant closed down.So I don't think
they would have left Gold panels
laying around the plant for 2 years.
I was not one of the workers involved in the assembly of the Gold cars.
My wife Eileen was the person who made the Tan seats
for the Gold car.Eileen worked for a firm in Belfast called Trimtec not far
from the DeLorean plant .
They were an English firm with a base in Belfast
Eileen said there were only 5 Tan seats made for the Gold car so there was
one spare seat just in case
Anyone coming to Belfast for Eurofest can go and see were the seats were
made but it is closed down now .
They now make windows on the site

The 65th. worker to be employed at the plant.
I have loads more stories like this.So see you @the Eurofest 2001Belfast

Subject: First Problem!!
My first problem in four years of ownership! Brake light stays on. It did the same thing a couple months after I purchased the car. Fluid was down a little and I topped it off. Light went out. The light came on again recently. It had 3K miles when I got it and 8k now. Checked fluid and it was down a little. Topped it off again...no change. Light is on permanently now, except a few times it has flickered off for a few seconds. No obvious leaks at wheels or master cylinder. Peddle is still up normal height. I have never used emergency brake. I have been driving it (carefully) since this happened a couple months ago). Wondering if the emergency brake lite switch could be sticking. If so, how to get to it to check.
Anyone, any ideas?

Trying to visualize. You must intend installing a radio with a CD player, is
that it? If so, the new harness is just to keep you from cutting the D's
stock harness assembly and if that's so you're probably going to cut the new
harness in half, as they suggest, and connect to your new unit, cutting all
those wires and connecting as indicated. Am I close?

Subject: my car runs!!!! (sort of)
hello all,
my fuel leak and fuel pump valves have been repaired, and my car starts and
stays going now. it idles well, and it surges up and down when cold just
like it should. it is still at an Amoco service station though because it's
not running quite right.
the problem is, when you hit the accelerator about 1/2 way down, the car
shudders and skips around, then it kind of evens itself out and runs to beat
hell. that's what the guys told me it does now, anyway. it kind of acts
like it has a turbo - it takes a bit for the engine to do what you tell it to
do.
anyone have any thoughts on what's up? this isn't a vacuum leak, is it? one
of the guys thought it could be that, but he couldn't feel any leaks. if
anyone has ANY ideas, they would be most appreciated. they have been working
with DMC Joe on it, and they're getting closer, but things aren't quite right
yet. if anyone can think of a possible cause, no matter how far fetched, let
me know. i'd like to keep the troubleshooting labor bills low!!
thanks as always!

I assume you are refering to the brake indicater light in the dash.
There are only two reasons not counting a short to ground that it will
light.Either low brake fluid (or a malfuntioning level switch) or the
emergency, parking brake is on or the switch is out of adjustment
(make sure the carpeting isn't interfering with putting the lever all
of the way down). There is no safety switch in the hydraulic brake
circuit to indicate a problem with the brake system. Disconnect one
switch and see if the light goes out. If it does you found the problem
and if it doesn't you still found it it's just the other switch.

Is the frequency valve buzzing like an angry hornet? It is on the
right side valve cover and the noise it makes is very noticeable. If
it is not buzzing then check the lambda relay. Moderate failure rate.
The symptoms you describe seem to indicate failure of the Lambda
system.

Subject: Renting out a DeLorean
I've just received a couple of requests for DeLorean "Rentals". One person
is in Pittsburgh, PA and would like an automatic to drive. The other is in
Miami Florida and just wants to thrill their son on his birthday, so they
might settle for having the owner do the driving.
Anyone near Pittsburgh or Miami that is interested can contact me for more
details/contact info. I don't want to be involved in any profits or
liability regarding these prospects - just passing on the info.
Meanwhile, I would be interested in hearing about other DML members
"DeLorean for Hire" experiences.
I've never "rented" my car out for others to drive, but Arnie Brandon, other
PNDC members and I have had our cars on display at locations like the
Washington Athletic club, the King Dome, church fund-raisers, advertising
campaigns, and at various malls. At the Seattle King Dome (now demolished) I
drove James Doohan (Scotty from Star Trek) onto the field to throw out the
first pitch for a Seattle Mariners game.

Subject: Removing Doors-NOT
The only reason you should touch the bolts holding the doors to the
hinges or the hinges to the body is if there was damage to a door. The
adjustments nessesary to PROPERLY reinstall the doors is way beyond
most people's abilities. The doors are also heavy and it is very easy
to damage them in removing or reinstalling. To remove them just to
work inside them is not worth the effort or the risk of damage. Unless
someone has disturbed the door hinge adjustments they are usually
better left alone. IMHO it is UNSAFE to remove the doors without
releasing the torque on the torsion bars. Refer to Workshop manual
P:02:06 Door,Left or Right Removal. You will see that it instructs you
to remove the torsion bar in preparation to removal of the door. If
you are not comfortable working on the torsion bars you have no
business removing the door! Although you can remove the doors without
touching the torsion bar sometimes there is a RIGHT way to do things
and a wrong way, you be the judge.
