On my car the inline fuse holders were connected in such a way that 
they couldn't be cross-connected even if I wanted to do so: the fuse 
holders consist of a "male" and a "female" part. The LGW (Light Green 
w/ White stripe) wire had the male end crimped on, the PW (Purple w/ 
White stripe) had the female part. This way there was only one 
possibility for connecting them. 

Wasn't this standard practice? Or purely at random?
This would surprise me: I have a little bit of experience in making 
wiring harnesses and usualy it isn't even possible to make them the 
wrong way around because of wire lengths in between connectors...

Subject: California duster

I just ordered a California Duster from California Car Cover Co..
Has anyone tried one of these and what were the results, I live on a 
dirt road so I thought this might work, I also bought a bottle of 
Vinylex through this company.

Subject: Craig Radio UPDATE

Hello,
    today I removed the radio and checked the wires at the connector that 
connects the radio to the harness.  I have constant power at the purple
wire 
and power in the ACC position with the green wire.  That is exactly how it

should be.

    I then spliced into the ACC wire right before it goes inside the radio

housing and it had no power.  So now I know the problem is between the 
connector and the radio.  I removed the black covering that is wrapped
around 
a small circuit board looking thing and saw that it was cracked.  I sorta 
squeezed the board together and then radio worked perfectly holding its 
presets.  Can this circuit board thing be replaced?  It is so cracked I 
really don't want to mess with repairing it.  John, do you think you can 
help?  If anyone has a broken Craig radio I will buy the wires coming out
of 
the back of it.  THANKS FOR ALL THE GREAT HELP LIST!!!!!

David

Subject: Oxygen sensor wireing

Hi all

I had this felling my oxygen sensor was faulty as the car was running a
little rich, however when I looked at it the wire to it is severed about
half an inch from the sensor.

My question is, Where does the wire route to as I can not find the other
severed wire or any wire that even goes near it.
Is there a page in the manual that will show me, cause I can't find that
either.

May be my finding part of my brain has gone!!!!!!!

Thanks for helping me find my way

Paul

Subject: Project Delorean Site Updated

Hey all,

Just wanted to let everyone know I've updated the Project Delorean site.  
Work continues on the 3.0 conversion and I've added pics.  I did however
have 
an unrelated snag that affected Project Delorean's budget and will most 
likely result in it's not being completed in time for Memphis.    : (
Ken, 
where're we gonna be in 2004?

Please check out the site though and I'll keep workin!
