Subject: 1983 DeLorean for sale
Hey List,
Just wanted the DML to know that I am considering selling my DeLorean
so I can buy a different kind of car. So if anyone is interested please let
me know. I've had this one almost 2 years and its in great shape. I've been
driving it every day as my daily driver and haven't had any problems with it at
all. I even drove it down to Memphis for the 2002 Car show and drove
perfectly there and back. Has been maintained by PJ Grady for me ever since I've
owned it. I'm the third owner of the car and this car has been serviced at PJ
Grady's since it was new. Please e-mail me privately to know more about it.
Its a 5 speed grey interior with almost 40,000 miles.
Later,
Nick Pitello

Subject: Re: White Letter Tires Turned Around
No, white letters (and white walls for that matter) are a layer of
white rubber. Final outer layer of black covers everything except what
is supposed to be white.
Ever notice how old white walls look frayed? Is outer layer coming
off, exposing more of white layer.
Raised letters on inside (outside after turned around) are especially
vulnerable to having outer layer rubbed off. They do stick out...
That's why black letter always preferable to white letter turned around.

Subject: [DML] DeLorean starts, but then stalls
Hi:
I installed John Hervey's fuel pump baffle kit and pump into my car
and added gas to the tank.
I started the car and the engine cranks and fires up, then stalls out
immediately. I am trying to figure out what could be causing this
and what I should be doing next?
Thanks!

hello all,
I very rarely get caught out with the car in the
rain.i have noticed several times that in the rain the
wipers stop working, or fail to turn on. this problem
will clear up a few hours after the rain stops at
which point they will operate normally.

Subject: Re: Nitto Tires NT-555R
The 205/55/14 tires up front will cause the speedometer to read 1.47% fast,
not really much of a problem. The 275/50/15's on the rear are a close match
diameter wise but are about 1 1/2" wider. IMHO a better size might be
245/50/15's which are close width wise, less than 1/2" wider, but about
5.6% smaller in diameter. It's not enough to look much different but it'll
lower the final drive ratio that 5.6% which is a bit of improvement over the
tall gearing in the DeLorean.

Subject: Re: RE: Jerky transmission (?) problem
You didn't read the last post about gas level carefully. First fill the
tank. If the problem goes away, you have a split fuel pickup hose. When
the gas level gets low enough, the split hose starts sucking air, killing
your engine. When you accelerate, you reach this "bad" gas level earlier
becuase the gas is sloshing around. At a standstill, you will start to
sputter as soon as your gas level goes down a little bit more and starts
sucking air 100% of the time

Subject: Re: Accuracy of charging meter
The voltmeter is pretty accurate when it is working right. If it is
always on the low side check it with an accurate voltmeter. It could
be that your alternator and-or battery need to be replaced or that you
need to clean up the connections in the binnacle and the main
grounding point inside by the front left tire. If it reads too high
that would indicate a bad voltage regulater inside the alternator.

Water injection brings down combustion temperatures to reduce pre-ignition.
Alcohol mixed with the water in amounts up to about 15% gives a bit of added
power but anything beyond that adds nothing. I'd guess the alcohol in the
washer fluid is why he suggested that.

Subject: Re: windshieldwiper irony
As far as the irony, I can't really comment. But a while ago I had real
sketchy wipers. I searched the archives and the only thing that I could
find was a bad wiper motor. So I bought one from Houston but couldn't for
the life of me figure out how to get it in - or actually how to get the
old one out.
Someone finally tipped me off to the wiper electrical connection in the
driver's footwell. I couldn't find that connection either. Finally one
day, while I was looking for something else, I noticed a loose electrical
connection. I reinforced the connection and since then my wipers have been
perfect.
So start hunting for that connection. It's about 4 or 5 wires that
junction at a plastic clip.

I'm just probing the list to see if anyone's got a really nice D for sale, or knows of one. I'm in NC... so I wouldn't want to travel outside of the South East really to buy. I also need a car that can be bought for under $20k. Mileage, year, interior color, and transmissions really aren't deciding factors, all I'm interested in is a cosmetically clean car that is a good driver. Anyone who thinks they've got a car for me, email me off list at Louie(AT)DeLorean.com. I've already found a D that I really like, I just feel like I should shop around some... after all this is my SECOND time around buying a DeLo :-). Thanks!!

Aaarrgghh! I had the opportunity to acquire a lovingly kept 1983 Delorean. My bank gave me a $15,000 line of credit to buy it, and the test-drive and vechicle inspection was oh-so-sweet. But the car I am currently driving is a leased vehicle, and when I tried to terminate the lease (as I would not be able to maintain two cars andthat I was depending on the money saved from the lease to pay back the line of credit), I was told that it would cost me $8,000 to do so. Talk about a kick-in-the-pants!

Subject: Re: Re: Engine Mods
Jim,
In Idaho we have two formulatons readily available. Mostly water and
mostly alcohol. I don't remember the exact ratios off hand as I am in
Calif. right now, but the higher alcohol offering (more expensive and
rated for lower temperature resistance to freezing) provides both
evaporative cooling and hydrocarbons to add to the fuel load. It really
works well. In Florida I would doubt the higher alcohol formulation is
available as you don't need protection down to -40 degrees F. If I
inject water only I get the dreaded 'lean on full boost' problem. With
water only I stop firing at about 4# boost. It just goes "flat". In
Calif. I have to buy Alcohol at Ace Hardware and spike the brew.
I monitor the intake manifold actual temperature and the harder I run
the car the cooler it gets. Cooler means denser charge. It really cuts
down on detonation as the higher octane rating of the alcohol combined
with the water (steam engine effect?) and the evaporative cooling of the
induction charge allows for higher boost with safety. Now if only I had
ported heads and free flow manifolds! Probably will never catch a 'three
rotor' but still fun to drive.

Subject: Re: windshieldwiper irony
I had wiper troubles a little while back. In Oregon, a wiper failure
pretty much renders a car undriveable, so for me this was a priority
item.
In my particular case the problem was the wiper relay. It is not
very clear from the service manuals where the wiper relay is
actually located, but getting to it is pretty straightforward.
Getting at the wiper module and also gives you access to all the
correct electrical junctions to determine whether the right signals
are coming from the steering column wiper switch and whether the
right signals are being sent to the wiper motors, so you can debug
the problem.
The wiper relay is mounted on a little circuitboard along with the
buzzer box. The circuitboard is clipped in place to the steering
column bracket and is actually above the steering column. I think I
wrote a little procedure on this a while back, but it goes something
like this:
1) Remove the air duct hose that leads to the driver's door vent.
You have to remove the plastic door vent trim first and then the
hose can be removed.
2) Remove the plastic air duct feeding the air duct hose you just
removed.
3) Laying on your back in the footwell, pull the circuitboard
holding the relay and buzzer box free of its mount. It it just
clipped in place and will pull free.

East really to buy. I also need a car that can be bought for under $20k.
Depending on what you consider really nice
I have a concours delorean with 120 miles on it
its really nice but its $26K right now
Getting "really" nice for under $20K is harder and harder to do
and that is good for us with cars.

Help! put intake manifold back on, all vacuum hoses in correct order. But does not start pretty sure all fuel lines are on right. Just which one is the return line and which one is the feed line (large hoses) that is the only thing i have a ????. Other than that it just cranks. The car ran before, at least it idled anyway. What could be causing this, it must be something I did or did not do? By the way I checked the inertia switch and it does pump fuel to the F.D also the fuse is good.
