[DMCForum] Water pump removed...

["mw98gt" <mw98gt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am around 4.5 hrs in on my first time working with a delorean 
motor and I have the water pump removed.  I hope not more than a 
couple hours longer than it should have taken.

Anyway, I have the volvo water pump now and have to put the old rear 
casing onto it.  Toby's kit came with the gasket, is that all I need 
to make a proper seal, or do I need some liquid too?  I am all 
nervous that I will get it all back together and there will be a 
leak.

Walt, what wre you saying about the rubber hoses needing to set, 
should i try to fine the y pipe hose and heater hose in silicone to 
be safe?  Is this what you have been trying to tell me?

The intake ports on the heads have a lot of carbon build up, should 
I clean that up or it doesnt really matter?

I have the major engine service kit, most seems easy enough, but how 
hard is it replacing the head cover gasket on the left side?  The 
right side seems easy. 

I had to cut the alternator belt to get it off, how do I get the new 
one on?

What size copper crush washers do I need to connect the fuel lines 
back to the distributor?  I believe there are two different sizes.


Does anyone know how to wire the nology power core to the ignition 
system?  Also it seems weird to me that you get the nice new plug 
wires and the power core but the coil wire is not upgraded.  Isnt 
the ingintion system going to be as good as its weakest link or is 
the coil wire not a problem?

Sorry for all the questions, but I am also curious if anyone knows 
of any aftermarket cruise control kits that I can use on the car?  
Mine has an old one which the original owner had installed but it 
doesnt seem to work.  I might just try to troubleshoot it if there 
are no other options.

Thats all the questions I can think of for now.  Thank you!
