When you install the wires, put a dap of silicon grease on the rubber boots where they contact the ceramic on the spark plugs. Also, use a little silicon grease where the plug boot seals around the spark plug well. Sometime this silicon grease is called "tune up" or "ignition" grease.

The most recent occasion it'd been under a cover and the engine was dry - it was just a typical gloomy damp cold english morning. We put a hairdryer on the distributor for 30 seconds and it fired up first time!!!! What on the dizzy should I check? It can't be much different from any other DeLorean. The cap and rotor looked like this when she was worked on last october http://www.delorean.co.uk/pictures/DCP02232.jpg Martin #1458 ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 2 Date: Sat, 3 Aug 2002 17:24:55 -0400 From: "Jonathan Lazar" <jxace@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: FOR SALE 1981 DeLorean Hey All, I am selling my 1981 DeLorean.

Well, just the other day I planned to take the D for a spin around the block, because it has been sitting for a few weeks. when I tried to start it the battery was dead. So I charged the battery for a few hours and it fired right up. The folowing day I went to drive it again and the battery was dead and it is a new battery What could this be? I have never had this problem before. Any ideas would be very helpfull thank you brian ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Your use of Yahoo!
