RE: [DML] No fuel delivered to fuel filter - accumulator problem?

James, If you took the hose off the bottom of the fuel filter and didn't get
gas out when you turned on the pump then something is stopped up.
The accumulator is on the return side.

Subject: [DML] No fuel delivered to fuel filter - accumulator problem?


hi,

i recently bought my delorean - #5380, which has been
stood around for 18 months after its previous owner
could not find a mechanic who could sort out its
mystery cooling problem.

before i can start figuring out the cooling, i need to
get the car running again.

i located the fuel filter - stuck in the wall of the
engine bay. pulled it out, pulled off the fuel feed
hose, stuck the hose in a can, and jumpered the fuel
pump relay to run the fuel pump constantly. (i was
trying to flush out the 18 month old fuel).
