Re: [doc] Hot Start???? Not Quite!!



Mine did that... the reason was never clear. I charged by battery and cleaned the relay contacts and she hasn't done it since - but mine has some "interesting" problems that are being sorted with DeLorean UK at the moment!

Ok so here's what happened to me just now.....

Jumped in the D and set off for a 20 mile trip to a car shop, all the way
the car behaved impeccably,(that's a first)

after a good 15 mins of motorway driving I took the exit ramp and came to a
stop at the junction as I sat there the car wanted to hunt between almost
stall and 2000rpm ??????? never did it again all day!!!!!

So parked up at the shop for around 20 mins, when we got back in to set off,
turned the key and nothing.... absolutely sod all .


I could see the dash illuminate as it should, hear the relays click over but
that was it, not even a revolution of the starter it was as if there was no
starter motor on the car.


So I started to check the fuses and all connections that had any thing to do
with the ignition circuit. All good.


so I sat and had a think, Came up with nothing, after 15 mins the shop guys
told me I would have to move the car as they were closing. "Need a push
please"

I got in the car and turned the key one more time and she roared into life,
since then she has started first time every time.

Any Ideas??

OH and the starter is good total rebuild 100 miles ago.

Cheers
