Julian Wainthrop, IV" <smeghead79@xxxxxxxx> Subject: Clinton in Belfast Somebody asked about getting Clinton to come to the Eurofest. I don't think mail sent to president@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx will get to Clinton anymore even if you ask really really nicely, but you may want to give his wife a buzz. I think every now and then she may speak to him. I found no direct e-mail address, but there's a form at http://clinton.senate.gov/email_form.html ... Good luck. - F Hudkins ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 2 Date: Sat, 7 Apr 2001 20:11:06 -0500 From: "sk1pper" <sk1pper@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: trans question how much hp/ torque can a D's 5 manual trans safely handle?

As for things to see, I don't know where to start. Opera house and the harbour bridge would be a good place to start off with. E-Mail me privately and we could set something up or I could pass on the details of who owns the former museum car Best wishes, Andrew Prentis SYDNEY ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 4 Date: Sun, 08 Apr 2001 01:53:09 -0000 From: jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: cooling problem If you can get the fans to run by jumping the switch then the trouble lies in the switch. Are you waiting till the switch gets hot enough? Do you have the old style pipe with the switch on the top? and it is in an air bubble? Maybe there isn't enough coolant or the water pump is airbound and needs to be bled because you aren't circulating coolant.

If you have the "bolt on" pulley you can readjust it without removing the water pump. If it isn't the bolt-on you will have to remove the water pump and send it to a Delorean vender to move or remove and put the proper one on in the right spot. Without the proper tools to press on and off you will ruin the pulley and most shops don't have the right adapters to do it which may explain why you perhaps don't have the correct pulley.

I know that the first DeLorean made is in a museum or something. If you go to www.entermyworld.com you can find a sweeeeeet DeLorean site with a downloadable video clip of the first one made. And I thought I read that 8,700 made, basicly 9,000 (That's what I tell friends who ask).

Even if they themselves don't understand all of it at least they can refer to it and have their mechanic use it to familiarize himself with the car. The manuals also have some of the simple safety hints and many troubleshooting tips that can answer many of the simple questions that appear on the list from time to time. The manuals won't make anyone a mechanic but they will make an owner more knowledgeable about their car. It should be one of the first things they order when they first get their car and then place the first order for parts. Creating a "Dummies" manual for the Delorean is a major undertaking and there will be no reward for the many hours of effort that will be required. By looking through the archives and talking to other owners new owners will quickly come "up to speed". I also recomend that new owners join a local group if available and go to meet other owners and venders. In 5 minuetes of looking at a car an experienced mechanic can see things that an ordinary mechanic wouldn't even notice and it is not easy trying to help people by remote control. Nothing takes the place of hearing and seeing for yourself. ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 8 Date: Sat, 7 Apr 2001 22:09:50 -0400 From: "Walter" <Whalt@xxxxxxx> Subject: Re: Amateur radio (was: On another note...!) It would be cool if we could start a DeLorean discussion group on the radio. Les, if you want to try to start an on-the-air discussion group, that would be great. But as of now, I have no equipment to get on the air. I haven't used my license in probably 20 years. If it is hard to get an internet DeLorean chat going, then imagine how much harder it would be to get one going on amateur radio. But it's worth a try. If there are any ham operators out there, speak up!
