Can't answer questions Re: what my fuel lines look like because car is 400 miles away. Apologies. Car has been re-engined (I was promised a carbureted block, but that's another story). According to Rob @ PJ Grady, my re-engine was a complete unit ready to drop in & run -- fuel distrubutor & steel lines came installed. He claims was imported from England (NOS?). All I know is it is tight, dry, starts excellent cold, and drives like a lower grade rocket (I thought DeLoreans were supposed to be slower than they looked). BTW: Rob identified two radio in-line fuses accessible without removing console. I'll investigate ASAP. BBTW: My mechanic buddy has had a change of heart. Passenger side exhaust manifold gasket replacement now is on again (see message #26695). Wish us luck (can you spell "rusty studs"?). Bill Robertson DeLorean-less in NC #5939
