I was told that I had to replace the entire calipers because they
could not just replace the striped out screws... That's where the
$250 comes in.
Is it possible to just replace the screws ? or is this place just
trying to get me to spend more money ?
The master cylinder shouldn't be bad cause I had that replaced last
summer.
Thanks.

Subject: Re: (wasHeat test) Cooling Fans
Although I agree with Dave Swingle this exercise was not without
merit. In an extreme case if the cooling fans were to fail at least
the list now has the knowledge that you could sustain cooling if you
can keep the foward motion of the car above 35-40 mph. This could be
usefull in an emergency and could be a good "get home" tip. To carry
this to a further logical conclusion maybe Fanzilla could be speed
controlled so that above a certain speed it could cycle 1 and then 2
fans off. Admittidly this would involve complicating the electrical
circuit but with the level of quality that the Zilla products have I
would be very confident in it. On automatics it would be easy, it just
has to know when you are in 3rd gear! And if there was a Transzilla it
could be a plug in affair.

I was so fed up with this stupid delay that I installed an aftermarket
one in my car... The first one I had in there was purely analog,
causing it to operate the exact opposite of original: if I had the
doors open for a couple of seconds (rainy day) it would only delay for
about 5 secs, had they been open for more that 16 secs I would get a
full 23 second delay, with a fade at the end. Since it was analog it
also faded faster with both interior lights on...
The second one I bought was a digital setup, I could set the delay
anywhere between 5 and 70 seconds using a screwdriver to set a
potentiometer... Since it was digital I had trouble with my
alarm-setup; it would cause false triggers because of the internal
transistors not fully blocking current...
I plan on installing a relay, controlled by the delay now, to let the
lights shut off and not interfere with my alarm...
All these modifications can be done to the car without cutting any
wires; I did my first two with spade connectors in the socket for the
original delay. You can see a pic of this on
<http://www.vdwouw.demon.nl/relays.jpg>
You can also see a part of the other modifications I have made.
When I have my relay-idea worked out I'll post some other pictures...
Good luck,

Subject: Re: Incorrect Voltage Reading
Declan,
Your low voltage reading at the dash voltage is an indication of a "voltage drop" somewhere in the electrical system. To correct this problem thoroughly clean the three main ground connections. Follow this by removing and cleaning all of the fuses in the fuse box, it might be easier to just purchase a complete set of fuses.
After completing all of the above repeat the voltage tests. Sample the voltage at various components inside the electrical compartment. If all the readings match the alternator reading but the dash voltage is low than you probably have a low reading dash voltmeter.

Hi All
Any time I ask a question I like to start with a big thank you to
all the group. You guys are the best.
With my fans and lights on, I see my voltage meter reading very low
9v. I am worried that I would loose power completely. I had replaced the
alternator with a higher ampage one. But this is the weird thing, If I but
an multimeter on the battery I get 14.5v, at the same time I have only 9v
on the dash gauge ? Am I testing my voltage from the wrong location.

CAUTION
Scott, You are correct about the circuit breakers getting hot but you said:
"Then, while driving, you can reach the breaker and feel that it is getting

I wanted to add to Scotts statement that both circuit breakers, especially the cool fan breaker, can be very hot to the touch. Take caution when touching the circuit breakers to prevent burning your finger tips.

Huh?
I run AC most all the time (it's 90 and humid here in Houston), and the fans
run; I can hear them at the stop lights. Then I start going and I hear them
until about 25-30 mph and it seems like they kick off, though I don't really
feel any performance/ engine change, and I'm not sure that I would with the
AC still going.
Maybe I'm just going deaf.
Or does anyone have an idea of something wrong?

Subject: R-12 -Vs- 134-a
Hello List,
I deiced to post this as there has been a lot of R-12 -Vs- 134-a
pertaining to the A/C. More specifically the cooling temp of the 2
gasses. I have however had my D's A/C running off R-12 and now 134-A.
I will say this the 134-A is every bit as cold as the R-12 if not
colder. In fact the 134-A blows so cold that I get condensation on
the out side of my front windshield (just above the air ducts on my
dash) up to 80F then it goes away. Also In the middle of the
afternoon in the 80F to 90F I have to turn my A/C fan speed down
because it get so cold in my car. The conversion I did was well worth
it and cost under $450. What I did to convert over to the 134-A from
the R-12 was as Follows.
1. Have the old R-12 and oil purged and captured by a A/C Shop. ( YOU
CAN NOT JUST LET IT GO)
2. Replace the old R-12 Fitting with the new 134-A fittings. (these
are located on top of your A/C Compressor)
3. Replace all of the old black R-12 O-rings with new green 134-A O-
Rings. (I got these from Grady's)
4. Replace the old condenser with a new one.( Your condenser is
located in front of your radiator. The new condenser has brass
fittings and are not as prone to stripping if you ever have to
disconnect the lines from it. Also it has 2 rows instead of the
standard one row. Again I got this from Grady's)
5. Replaced the accumalater/dryer. ( I got this from Grady's as well )
6. Made sure all the connection where tight, BUT NOT TOO TIGHT.
7. Had the system vacuumed down.
8. Charged the A/C with 2.2 LBS of 134-A (One of the cans I put in
had leak detecter in it. I did this because I thought If I ever have
a leak in the future it would make it a lot easier to find.
Well, that's it and that's what I have to say about the R-12 -Vs- 134-
A thing. I hope this help any of you contenplating the change over.
Again this is from my experience so I know it works great, at least
it does with my car.
Thanks And God Bless...

Subject: Re: Heat test
I went though high temp problems with my car a few years ago. High speeds
didn't really bring the temp down to a comfortable level. When I pulled the
radiator to replace it with a triple core metal tanked one I discovered that
about 30% of the cooling fins were plugged with debris that had been picked
up over several years of cross country driving. The cooling fins in the AC
evaporator are spaced further apart than the radiators. Junk, bugs, weeds,
and so on, pass through the evaporator fins and lodge in the radiator. You
can't see this because of the evaporator and the fan shroud. The only way to
tell for sure is to pull the radiator. I always flushed the radiator from
the front side but that didn't seem to be enough. You really can't get a
good shot at it through the narrow front opening. I thought I'd mention this
as a possible reason for high temps if all else fails to solve the problem.
I really don't think switching the fans on and off manually is a viable
solution. If just sounds like an easy way to try to circumvent
fixing a problem cooling system.

Subject: Re: Re: (wasHeat test) Cooling Fans
Sorry for being so windy here, but that is the way engineers are.
Regarding the installation of a cutoff switch in the cooling fan circuit:
In order to understand why most, if not all, cars are arranged to have the
electric cooling fans on all the time when the air conditioning it is
necessary to consider the following.
The radiator size in a given car is determined by the maximum amount of heat
it will ever need to get rid of: Death Valley on a hot day in July for
example. The water in the engine cooling system can store up a great deal of
heat without changing temperature a lot. This characteristic will take care
of many situations where there is minimal air flowing through the radiator
from the motion of the car. These considerations mean that under almost all
other conditions the radiator is actually much larger than is necessary. The
fans then, are provided to take care cases of extreme cooling needs. To
leave them running all the time would result in excessive current usage,
excessive wear on the fan motor(s), and could result in overcooling the
coolant under certain conditions.
When we add air conditioning into the picture we have a somewhat different
situation. In this case the air conditioning is constantly ( or almost
constantly ) transferring heat from the interior of the car and into the
outside air through a device called the condensor. The AC condensor is
usually mounted in front of the cooling system radiator. This is because
good efficiency of the AC depends on the condensor getting a large amount of
the coolest possible air. Therefore the electric cooling fans are left on at
all times when the AC is on.
Interestingly there will many times be no apparent ill effects if the
electric cooling fan(s) are off when the AC is on. What happens in these
cases though is that the temperature of the AC condensor rises a LOT:
sometimes to as much as 300 degrees fahrenheit or more. What this results in
is VERY high pressures in the high pressure side of the AC system. Some
systems, but not all, have high pressure cutoff switches to prevent damage
in these cases. What you will experience when the high pressure cutoff
operates is that the cold air output will become warm / hot over a period of
30 seconds or so due to the AC compressor being shut down.
In any case it is a bad thing to be running the AC without the electric
cooling fans running.

Subject: RPM's
to those of you talking about engines and their safe reve limit, the number of cylinders has little to do with how much they rev. For instance a big displacement 6.6 liter trans am v-8's redline is probally not even 5 grand however a ferrari v-12 3 liter motors have been built to rev well past 8 grand and my 2 stroke 100cc yamaha kart engine gets reved to 15 grand all the time. So the moral of this story is you can build almost any motor to rev high, number of cylinders does not mean different rev limits, and redlines are often times inversly proportional to displacement.

Taking that there is nothing wrong with the calipers and only the
bleeder screws (the boxed end where the wrench goes on) is stripped
then yes...you can just replace the bleeder screws. If the pistons
inside the calipers are binding then you need to replace/rebuild
them. I am assuming right now that you only have air in your system
and everything is in good condition and this is why the mechanic was
trying to remove the bleeders. Bleeder screws are very common thing
to find and you can get them from any of the Delorean vendors or good
auto parts store! They are only a few dollars and are very easy to
install. Bleeding the brakes isn't that difficult either and can be
done easily with an assistant, a length of rubber tubing and a small
jar....or you can get one of those one man brake bleeder kits. :)

Let me tell ya something about Ebay bidders... they

My car is right now at 15.1K - I get an email from a
guy offering straight cash for it for 14K, and says he
cannot go any higher because he can't afford it... yet
when I do a lookup, its the same guy with the 15.1
bid... this tells me the guy isn't going to even pay.
Not to mention - because I was being honest, I said it
had the Duce altenator in it, and thatit went out
twice, and I had it rebuilt.... he gets all pissy "if
it only has 4600 miles on it why would the alternator
go out?" I explained to him the delorean caveats -
and he gets all ticked off...
Anyhow, its still on ebay - but I will sell it
outright to a list member if they want it, just make
an offer on it.. and please have the money if you
do.... I am sick of having to explain to people about
these cars.. they seem to think that nothing should go
wrong with them, so I try to be honest.... maybe
that's wrong of me I dont know...
anyhow, if interested email me at
pikem@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx - for what its worth, I have a
full carfax report on it as well... it's linked to the
ebay description.... I'd rather take a little less and
give it to someone who isn't going to flip out, or not
come through then to have to go through what I am
gonna have to go through if I dont get the money.
thanks,

PS - I need to settle my financial matter by Tuesday

$1000 to Florida (picked a far away state), with
50,000 in coverage. So if you are closer to NM than
FL it should be cheaper.

black vinyl. If you're looking to recover yours due to a custom
cosmetic project (i.e. changing your interior color) then please
consider a swap. I'll willing to swap plus pay for all shipping fees
and then some. Please email me privately at shirazcupala(AT)home.com
thanks,
shiraz

Everyone seems to be fixated on the stripped bleeder screws only. Is it
possible that the threads in the calipers are stripped out and that is why
the calipers need to be replaced?

Joe,
I asked that question of Mike the other day when he mentioned that he had
been to JZD's old farm. Noone answered. If anyone knows please share it.
If it is shared, then anyone who reads it must be respectful of Mr. D's
privacy.
