[DMCForum] Bad Delorean Day

I had a pretty bad delorean day today. No accidents thankfully, but just all around bad.
First, my front shocks are shot. Not sure how that happend as they were great this past week, but they are clearly gone. My car bounces and squeaks in the front now...didn't do that the other day. Sucks.
Second, my car died on me 4 times today while I took it out to calm my nerves from a hectic day ( 1 house fire, 1 county dump fire, 2 crashed HP Servers, and a baby sitter who called in sick). A while back I posted to this forum about my car suddenly dying. At the time I knew the location to get it back up and running. Somewhere near the ignition coil in that group of wires is a short somewhere, because when its dead, if I start to move the cover around to get at those wires, the car comes alive again. The first time it happend I reseated and put a contact goo on all the connectors. Lasted about 4 weeks and now its happening again. Not sure what the hell is going on but it sure capped my day.
Actually, what capped my day was when I went to lay down on our bed and my box spring broke and my wife and I started to roll towards each other. After we laughed a bit I came downstairs to write this email......what a day.
Anyway, if anyone had any ideas as to why my car is dying, please let me know. I'll be going through again and reseating and re-gooing everything.
Good night,
Erik
