If this is the case, the worst thing you can do is try and start the car. The black mush will then clog up the fuel injection system. Pop the pump out of the tank, and take a look. gbgarnet wrote: > > My DMC has been sitting idle for approx. 16 months and I wanted to start driving it again.

I suspect a fuel pump problem since I cannot smell gasoline. Also, the fuse for the fuel pump was blown. I replaced the fuse but it still does not start.

Here we go! 1.) I noticed the one listed as 'prototype.' Now could this be the final 'prototype' made? (since it resembles the prod. model with power windows) 2.) How many prototypes exactly were made? (I've heard between 2 and 4) 3.) Also what would its VIN be? Prior to #00500 is my guess. Or somewhere between 00502 and 00614 (00670? what was the number?? I dont have the page in front of me right now) which brings up... 4.) Where is #00501?? never heard mention of it before anywhere. 5.)how many of the 'testing cars' are known to still be around?? I have knowledge of 500, 502, 514, and 570 (owned by a gentleman also on the DML -would you care to shed light on the subject since you own one of these in speculation?). An article in a past DeLorean World issue (dont remember which, near the back end of the first binderful if you have them) with a picture of the a car with a title of "DeLorean Motor Company Training Car" on its VIN-plate if I recall. Since that paticular car was sent back to the factory and was going to be dismantled, but was sold instead, wouldnt that require it be given a VIN?? I'm curious as to if it would be stuck in early as an 81 or if this was after the last car, the gold one, #20105, it was possibly given 20106 or if there were others, an even higher # VIN? In the DW article accompianing the picture, it talks about 3 cars of the 150 or so crash test cars were the only one's known to survive. I'll be damned if I can't remember those VIN numbers, but I do know 2 were of the 500's and one in the 600's. (570 was not one of them) And after reading a page from the Great DeLorean FAQ, It fascinates (sp?) me. Which brings up... What ever happened to the 'black cars' made from fiberglass? I came to understand they were later dismantled, but there has got to be a picture, or story on them somewhere on them. ANYONE?? Were they given actual VIN's (possibly explaing why the production cars started at #00500?) I have also come to a conclusion that the were at least 2255 DeLoreans produced and sold as 1983 models, by using the FAQ and delorean.com/chronology.html pages. Follow me here... ~The FAQ says: 83 VIN 15000- VIN 16000- Primarily handled by KAPAC (Consolidated) as middleman VIN 17000- Approximately 100 cars produced for Canadian market (SSI) VIN 20000-20104 Cars assembled by plant managers after plant closed. Last car produced 12/24/82 (SSI). VIN 20105 Gold plated, last car manufactured. Raffled off by subsidiary of Consolidated (now KAPAC). And here I add my discoveries to this...assuming they didnt cut a series short and/or skip VIN's: ------1983------ VIN 15000- I am assuming 1000 cars produced, the chronology has 15111 to 15880. VIN 16000- Once again 1000 cars, Chronology has 16000-16693 VIN 17000- The Canadian Cars, (how many 'made it/are still' in Canada? only 2 of the 6 that are on the chronology show they are, one of them [17115 to an un-named owner] even ended up in the Netherlands.) The previous says 100 cars, but chronology says there is a 17106, 17115 and 17149 all made either in or after September 82 so at least 150 produced. VIN 20000-20104 accounted for, 104 or 103 cars made. VIN 20105- accounted for, resides in Cumberland Maryland (I really need to drive over there someday since I reside in NW'ern Maryland too) Also were the zero-numbered cars from the beginning of a VIN series made? I am talking about ones like xx000. I only know for sure there was a vin 500 and vin 16000. How about 11000, 12000, 15000, 17000, and 20000. I know that there is most likely no car with a VIN 10000, I have talked with a guy who has the last 81, vin 7199 and the first 82, 10001 (both for sale incidentally). Does that mean that those zero-numbered cars were never made? just started at the x0001? And yet another from James Espey in the wonderful back issues... "...In Ireland a few years back, I saw one of the RHD cars converted at the company's request that was VIN 12174, with a build month of May 1982..." -Assuming they didnt skip over any VIN's, wouldn't that change the 1126 figure for 1982? (as well as the final count of 8583 to 9630!) pushing it to at least 2173?? Even http://www.dmcnews.com/chronology.h tml shows VIN's above the 1126 (ex: 11152, 11156, 11262, 11529, 11532, 11554, 11594, and yes, 12174) which means the 1982 VIN's would have stopped at about VIN 11127. As we can see, they did not. and Mr Espey also said: "I recently came into possession of a computer print out of VINs, interior color, transmission type and engine block# for 1982 cars up to 11126. This will be incorporated into the DeLorean Production Chronology when it is updated next month." was this ever added??? If not I'd like to get a copy of it James, if possible to incorporate it into my studies. Also since this was only for 1982, if the other's were not desroyed, the is most likely one for 1981, and even possibly one for 83, although not likely. If I take more time to think about this I could probably come up with a lot more questions, especially for 1981 cars since I really didnt touch much on that year, (here's a 1981 ques: why did the 81 VIN's stop at 7199??? They weren't at the end of the year either) So in conclusion on the VIN's I'd say there were approximatly: 6699 cars made for 1981, not 6640 or 6539 at least 2173 cars made for 1982, not 1126 and at least 2254 cars made for 1983, not 918 making a grand total of 11126 (whoa!! coincidence the previous thought for 82 was 1126??) DeLoreans produced, not including the pre VIN 500 cars or excluding the test cars or ones that were totalled or cars not accounded for on the Chronology study, but were between ones listed, for example, 6924 and 6938 were listed, but ones inbetween were not. all those were counted. I also strongly incourage any of you oth ther to get in contact with me if you have a VIN list/story of your own (DMC Joe and Darryl Tinnerset come to mind as mentioned they did in the past). In the next month or so, fellow DML'er and DeLorean owner Sam Commarato and myself, John Heflin will be releasing our web-page that we have been working on for most of the past half-year, titled "The DeLorean VIN Project" we try to answer most of the questions involved with the DeLorean VIN number, and how it works, as well as provide each DeLorean its own single page, listed in order by its Last 5 digits of its VIN number, as well as Photos of their car, along with a type written account by the owner, of their car. I invite everyone to join with the 45 owners that have already done so and send myself or Sam the information listed above. If you have no pictures, not a problem. Even if you have sold your DeLorean or have pictures of another one that is not yours and can do a write up on it, send it in. We love those who own more than one :) Again thanks to those who have already submitted their DeLorean to our site. And as a thank you to our very first submission back on January 1st, please visit http://www.delorean.com and view the car on the main page of the site that belongs to Tim Hansen. Please give this car a home! As for the submissions, they can be sent to either myself at (preferrably the ones with numerous photos) or to Sam at Any information that anyone can contribute to this little quest of mine will be grately appreciated, alas it is very early of what was tomorrow morning (and I think my body is still trying to function on east coast time which is 3 hours ahead...) when I started this "quick reply" about the prototype and oh jeez my brain has just turned into mush. Thanks again for the List and everything, as well as a place for me to ramble on about my VIN studies :) and the new site. I will probably think of more to add at a later time, after all, I'm on vacation here, the whole definition of that is not to think right? ha! Whoooooeee that was a lot. Finally done, for now...

But here is some solid info. It isn't much, but it is something. I actually met with Delorean yesterday, and he denied the recent list reports about his new car being stainless steel and having a convertible version. He told me that the car was made out of some special materials and that the car can do well under 3 seconds in its 0-60 times. It will have the Delorean gull-wing doors. No release date though. We must wait, but remember, all good things come to those who wait. Tamir Website: http://homepages.go.com/~82delorean PS: Look for updates to my site in the near future, including my visit with Delorean, new quizess, pics, and much much more.

I'm graduating and moving, and unfortunately have to get rid of it. The car is in good shape, and runs well, having recently passed California emissions. It's a 5 speed with dark gray interior. The body is generally in good shape, with one dent on the top of the driver's side door. This car is salvaged, but has run well since I purchased it three years ago. In any case, it's priced well, and would make a great "starter" Delorean, or would do well as a "backup" for you enthusiasts out there. The car is currently for sale on Ebay, with a starting price of $4900. The URL to place a bid is http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130381190 Feel free to contact me with any questions. graham ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address moderator@dmcnews.com ------------------------------ message 1545 ------------------------------ http://www.eGroups.com/list/dmcnews/?start=1545 X-Mailing-List: dmcnews@egroups.com X-URL: http://www.egroups.com/list/dmcnews/ Date: Mon, 12 Jul 1999 16:18:15 -0700 From: Luke.Sandel@cmich.edu Subject: [DML] FP dome nut... doh! Content-Type: text/plain Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Ok, while reworking the fuel system I managed to send the fuel pump dome nut rocketing bewteen the GRP body and the fuel tank... I think it landed somewhere between the tank and the frame, but I'm not sure. So the question of the day is: Is this a standard part? Could I possibly find it at an auto parts store or home depot or someplace? I'd order from a parts supplier, but I hate to just order one single nut (and wait for a week for it to arrive).

We are set-up to have a class for DeLoreans. Last year we had over 70 British cars. Trophies and door prizes. Goody bags with sign-up. Cars are parked on the bay-front. Car show is in conjunction with the Lavallette Heritage Art Fair. Check out the cars, meet new people, check out the art fair and go out on the beach and take a dip. E-mail me for more info and for sign-up forms. Hope some of you can make it.
