I recommend the black, it is less noticeable. You apply to both srfaces like contact glue and let it get tacky before appling. Whichever vender you got the seal from should be able to help explain how to do this and can also get you the glue.

I may be hard to get because its meant for industrial/professional use. My brother in-law had some that he got through a previous job. Maybe the list has the name of a more readily obtainable adhesive.

On an automatic car the wires would go to a kick-down micro switch so at full throttle it forces a downshift to the next lower gear. On a 5-speed there is only 1 micro so at full throttle it runs the lambda full on. David Teitelbaum vin 10757 -- In dmcnews@xxxx, "J Rowe" <rowejj@xxxx> wrote: > I've got another question for you.

The inertia switch was not affected. After wiggling the harness wires to the fuel pump, the car started. I found and corrected a bare wire problem near the pump (the wire was coming out of the harness). However, the problem of the motor stopping occured again. Can someone show or tell me the complete circuit for the fuel pump wiring and the actual location of the fuel pump ground (not the inertia switch). If I go directly from the battery to the RPM relay, to the pump, it works. If I use the existing wiring, nothing happens. Where does the power come from, to the relay. We have battery voltage going into the RPM relay, but apparently no power coming out of the relay to the pump. Is there a way to test the relay? Do I want to replace the complete system and bypass the harness - 2 wires - from ground to the inertia to the pump, and from power to the relay to the pump?

Scott Mueller DMCNEWS 002981 DOA 5031 DeLorean Mailing List - 05/01/96 Monday, 6 May 1996 Volume 02 : Number 109 From: "Scott Mueller" Date: Sat, 4 May 96 12:03:41 UT Subject: Performing recalls -Vs- value I have recently put VIN 00281 on the road. I am considering entering my car in a show. I was wondering if anyone knows if a car has the recall performed on it, is it worth more or less? Would the car receive a higher or lower score in a show? My father purchased this car before any were released for production. It has been in storage for the last 12 years, and I would say that it is in excellent condition. I have been tinkering with it for the past two years, mostly cleaning up the fuel system.

ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE OEM REPLACEMENT IS?

Thank you for your accurate description. It makes sense for me now. ;-) But isn't this whole air intake system with all its bends, hoses and that valve posing quite some air flow restriction and therefore some performance loss ?

The fuel pump is #179, the inertia switch #65, the rpm relay #109. BP is black/green WP is white/purple and so on. The power for the fuel pump comes from fuse #7 into the rpm relay.
