Re: [DML] Novice Maintenance Questions

In answer to your questions:
1. Castol 10W-50
2. Any of your Delorean part dealers ( See DML venders list).
3.Yes, but they will need special tool ( see previous listing on DML for this 
, or can have one made), to undo oil pan plug.
4.Yes, but take the time to be there in the pit with the person, that way you 
know it is done right.This is not a slam on Jiffy Lube, just a chance to get 
to inspect the underside of your ride.
5.Yes, it is located in the air filter box ( large black box on top of 
engine).
6.The bearing in the pulleys do go bad from time to time, call Delorean parts 
vender and get replacement, or if you know someone who is mechanically 
inclined the bearing can be found at Pep boys, take old one in and they can 
match it.
You need to get a copy of the parts manual and the tech repair manual. ( Do a 
search on the net, I have seen parts manual downloadable for free.) Both of 
these will help you to better understand how you cars works, how to fix it 
and the various parts that go into the car. I also suggest that you take the 
time to review the old issues of the DML. Lots of great info to be found. 
Good luck on your new ride, with proper attention to the needs of your twenty 
plus year of auto, you too can enjoy and live the dream.
