Over the years we have had situations where some auto shows that feature a limited range of cars get very upset because the DeLorean's "steal the show". Several years ago we drove several DeLoreans through the front entrance of a British motorcar show with doors raised. The majority of the spectators swarmed to our cars like bees to honey. I know that the other participants were slightly upset. But you know what? That's what I love about the DeLorean, they never fail to attract a crowd.

The failure rate for this component is less than 1%. These units virtually last forever. They either work or don't work. If the engine is missing the problem is elsewhere.

The turn signal wiring runs through the hazard flasher switch socket. While observing the flasher reach behind the AC panel (from passenger side) and wiggle the back of the hazard flasher socket and see if you can make the flasher operate. If you need further assistance you can e-mail me directly.

Wouldn't this place less stress on the gas struts and springs? I've often considered the same thing, the tension on the struts and torsion bars is significant. I have heard of people removing the struts and/or relaxing the torsion bars for winter storage, but the potential for damage during the torsion bar process probably outweighs the benefit in most cases. The biggest obstacles are practical: there is no easy way to put a car cover on a DMC with the doors open; and this leaves the interior more vulnerable to creatures and airborne dirt. I saw the later post about the top seals, also a good point, but in most cars not an issue since they are already shot. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eGroups.com home: http://www.egroups.com/group/dmcnews http://www.egroups.com - Simplifying group communications ----------------------------------------------------------------- -- View the full archives, subscribe/unsubscribe, use the group calendar at http://www.eGroups.com/list/dmcnews Manage your subscriptions at http://eGroups.com Free e-mail groups by eGroups.com.
