I don't know about a defroster switch exploding, but when I
bought mine I found that it wasn't working...it just teeters to one
side and doesn't "click" to go on or off. Would anyone else know
how to fix this?
Please e-mail at RJRavalli@xxxxxxxx It's one of the many "small"
repair issues I will be asking about in the future.

If you need a new radio mounting plate for the console, check the Mid-State
DeLorean Club web site. http://www.midstatedmc.com/ under Parts. One of
the guys has a plate that can be made up with a DIN opening in it instead
of the older style shafts. He can make them up with any size as long as it
will fit.
I have some 9-pin connectors to match up with the original factory radio
wiring harness. They aren't on the web page yet. $6 incl. shipping to the
US. E-mail me privately if you are interested. mark(at)buffalochips.org

It was my understanding that the plunger is pushed up by a ball laying in a cup;
when the car turns over or if a shock is applied the ball comes up out of the cup,
thus pushing up the plunger. The Inertiaswitch shuts off the fuelpump AND
unlocks both doors if they were locked...
I remember seeing an illustration of the inner workings of the InertiaSwitch,
but I can't find this picture anymore (it's late...) Maybe someone else
knows where to find this illustration?

ANSWERS PROVIDED BY DMC JOE
DMC Help / De Lorean Services / <dmchelp@xxxxxxx>
(Q) "Is the cost of braided steel worth it, i.e. will they be more durable
for the cooling system and should they last any longer?"
(A) Steel braided coolant hoses are on over kill and not cost effective.
(Q) "Should I invest in a Fanzilla?"
(A) The Fanzilla is the best choice to make your cooling fan system both
efficient and reliable.
(Q) "Should I replace the otterstat?"
(A) The cost of the otterstat is under $21 and is easily changed when the
cooling system is being serviced.
(Q) "My right side exhaust manifold gasket is going, can I do any damage by
driving it."
(A) No.
(Q) "The climate control only works with the fan speed in 4 and the
defroster selection does not blow out the defroster vents."
(A) Start your repair procedures by replacing or repairing the AC mode
switch.
Thanks!

Subject: Re: fuel management help
Jim,
A non working frequency valve will make little difference in the idle speed.
If your idle has jumped to 5k RPM's your throttle plates must be stuck open.
Temporarily disconnect the accelerator cable from the throttle spool and see
if this corrects the problem.
In order for the engine to operate efficiently throughout its entire range
both the frequency valve and idle speed motor must be operational.

Subject: Re: big coolant leak... somewhere
Christian,
Many plastic coolant bottle failures are at the bottom seam and cannot be
detected unless the leak is in progress. To determine exactly where the leak
is originating conduct a cooling system pressure test. If you don't have a
pressure tester most service facilities do and can perform the test for you.

Noah,
To test the idle speed microswitch operation; with the engine turned off,
have an assistant push and release the accelerator while you listen for a
"click" back at the engine compartment. If you don't hear a click the switch
is out of adjustment. If you do hear a "click" start the engine and ground
the black/green wire connected to the microswitch. If the idle drops to
normal the microswitch is defective.

In response to a question regarding the silicon water hoses. Yes, Rob
does use silicon hoses on the ones behind the water pump. He says he has
had great success with these. They compress better than the OEM hoses
and don't have the problem with freezing temp leaking issues. I just
has my entire cooling system hoses replace except for these as they were
just done a few years ago when the water pump was changes but I WILL get
them replaced with the silicon hoses when the time comes. If you are
due for replacement of these hoses don't even think of using something
else. Call Rob.

Subject: Re: Automatic or Manual
Joel,
Both the 5 speed manual and 3 speed automatic transmissions are well built
and reliable. The manual trans has few internal problems but the clutch
components will have to be replace when worn out. The auto trans contains a
computer which is prone to failure from heat and age.
In the long run both transmissions are extremely reliable and cost of repair
at 100k miles would be about the same. The decision on which DeLorean
transmission is the best choice should be based on personal choice.

As far as the Microswitch. I can sell you a new one for $19.95 or your's can
be checked for proper operation with a VOM meter. Very simple. You can buy
VOM meters as low as $9.95 in hardware stores. Contact me at Dherv10@xxxxxxx

So far the VIN searches, for the most part, have been very interesting. For
list members I have done 17 searches. On 12 of those I found relevant
information, and 5 had no data available.
Some Deloreans have liens recorded, some have inconsistent odometer
readings, one had a front end collision reported. If you live in a county
that requires emissions inspections, these are reported fairly consistently
as either pass or fail.
It's worth a shot anyway. I need your complete VIN number and an e-mail

Realy? what year was it when that was a required item on all fuel injection

there is no Name list of anyone that is in the room. However,
everytime someone joins it is posted in the chat window with the name
they come in as or change, same thing holds true when they leave.
This will be my last posting about the chat room on the DML since I

OK, here is the new information on my 81' D for sale.
I would like to sell this as quickly as possible, as I've found a Fiat Spider to buy and need to pay off some of my college bills.
1981 Delorean DMC-12
29,XXX Miles
VIN #1118
- Coca-Cola Red (sometimes called Pantera Red)
- No Body Damage known, several body men agree there is nothing hidden. It's just an urban legend that they were only painted when damaged.
- 5-Speed 2.8L PRV V-6
- Beautiful Black Leather Interior
- Embedded Antenna in windshield
- Gas flap on hood
New:
-Door Lift Struts
-Hood Struts
-Louver Struts
-Fuel Accumulator
-Starter Solenoid
-JVC El Kameleon Cd Deck
-Various Relays
-Tires (Expensive Eagles)
-Stainless Coolant Overflow tank
Also comes with a complete automatic coolant bleeder setup (not installed), and a full tune-up kit w/silver tips from PJ Grady ($300)
I really love this car, but I'm in college now and need some serious cash quick. It drives like a Dream and I'm sure you won't find a better deal on a 29,xxx mile Carfax confirmed Delorean. I'll give you a copy of the Carfax report with the car, The DMC Workshop Manual, and Owners Manual.
I've been told it isn't much of a task to return this car to it's original stainless look, but once you see the red in person you won't want to.
Go here for some pictures of it next to my Fiero:
http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/1930/myride.html
The Car is located in El Paso, ILLINOIS. I'm asking $10,500 (FIRM) now and am taking quite a loss on it, but I don't really have a choice.

Subject: Re: Re: Non- starter.
John / List,
I have got vin 20049 started...I found the rubber pipe coming out of the
bottom of the fuel pump was kinked, I cut a inch off it and re-fitted it.
Still no flow!..I then undid the joint in the fuel line, just after the fuel
pump fuel drained out, re-tighted the joint and "hay presto" fuel through to
the fuel head.
I am still running on a temporary power electrical feed to the fuel pump as
the live is still dead at the plug / socket.
There is no power at the inertia switch either. This is despite me changing
the black/blue relay box, and the other two fuel related relays.
At least I can drive the car the few yards onto its position at our big car
show on Friday.
When the engine did start, it ran a little lumpy, this was soon fixed when I
found an ignition lead not clipped on the spark plug properly.
Any thoughts on why I still have no power to the fuel pump?
