Thanks for the help, I forgot to mention that the fuel filter was also 
replaced. The frequency valve is not making any noise, so I guess I'll start 
with that. What does the lambda system consist of, the oxygen sensor and the 
computer control box anything else? The first thing I purchased were the 
manuals but they are with the mechanics. Also where should the temp gauge be 
reading? Mine only goes about 1/4-1/3 of the way up, but the engine gets 
pretty warm. Do you know what is worse than not having the car of your 
dreams? Having the car of your dreams and not being able to drive it. Thanks 
for the help. I cant wait to get it running good. One more question kinda 
off topic but the title says vin 16514 but the vin on the dash and door jam 
says 16579 Is this something to be concerned about or just a typo. I haven't 
gotten the car registered yet, but am concerned this might be a problem. The 
PO said he purchased the car from the original owner who had three DeLoreans 
maybe they mixed up the titles?
Thanks again you guys are great.
