Hey GBS, Pretty easy, talk to John http://specialtauto.com/delorean-parts/clutch-transmission.html He charges $250 to update the governor and you'll be running like new. Just make sure to do it before it shifts down and blows the tranny. You'll probably also spend another 50 or 100 replacing the transmission pan gaskets and might as well the filter "while you're in there". You have to drop the pan to remove one of the wire connections. Not terribly difficult but gives you the chance to clean up the transmission while you're there.
