Re: [DML] Fuel system Help



I bought a car like this.
You will have to clean out the fuel system first.
Drain the gas, and then get acetone and wipe out the fuel tank.
The boot around the fuel pump is most certainly ruined and will be like tar. Replace it. If the car has been started while in this condition, you will most likely have to replace the fuel pump, the accumulator, and the fuel filter. If you are extremely unlucky, you will have to work on the fuel injection system.

Im looking at a Delorean for sale and the person has had it garaged
for years and probably has only started it every now and then. What
steps would I need to take (if I bought it) to ensure that the fuel
does not wreck the engine with impurities from sitting a long time?
Just change the hoses associated with the fuel system? Thank you so
much for any feedback.
