Hi, I own DeLorean DMC-12 VIN 5898, I bought her on July 25th of 2001. Since in my ownership I have had all kinds of problems. finally in from mid March to late May the car ran perfect, no problems, then my AC belt froze. After all that was fixed I found my lower pick up hose literally fell apart in my gas tank. Then I began to have cold start problems. Currently I have the fuel distributor being rebuilt by a well known and very highly mechanic of the area in which I live. He is very experienced with the bosch K injection, and well the DeLorean altogether. Now this car has had many surprises, most common problems I have usually turn out to be something either Very minor or a lot larger. Now the parts I can recall that I replaced has been, Fuel pump, accumulator, thermo time switch, all fuel lines that were bad, warm up regulator, pressure regulator, a full tune up, new brakes, new slide quadrant, new Ac wheel, all new belts, and many more parts. But although my mechanic and I are very much hoping the distributor is bad, and that's it I just want to know if anyone else may have some ideas. The car simply takes about 6 times to start cold. after its going the idle takes about a min or so to smooth out, then you can drive without any other problems, until you hit traffic then the car attempts to over heat, so far this only occurred 3 times, and all times it was near the shop or my home, so it hasn't, yet. I looked at many tech tips, but none had solved my problem. So from any DeLorean past or current owners, if this same situation happened did it turn out to be just the distributor????
