For two days I could not get the engine to shut off unless I flipped the battery cut-off switch. It wasn't "dieseling", it was purring. Every gas station and fast food place and every hotel required the use of the cut-off switch. I had several gas station mechanics try to solve the problem (I was in nowhere land as far as DeLorean mechanics were concerned). No success. Then, it disappeared, never to happen again. As frustrating as it was, it was a heck of a lot better than the alternative. Dick Ryan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
