[DML] First Outing With My DeLorean-STRANDED



I have owned my DeLorean since early February and it has been in for repairs
and improvements almost the whole time.

Yesterday, Sunday, my wife and I set out early in it to go to Half Moon Bay
to join the Northern California DeLorean Motor Club at a Dream Machines car
show.

Moving in a long line of cars to the entrance, there were delays where we
would be dead stopped and then have car length forward movement.  In order
to save the automatic transmission overheating , I would put the selector in
N when stopped and then D to move forward when the line moved.

When we got to the front and I was the next to move, I moved the selector to
D an felt a slight engagement effect as it slipped into gear and then
nothing.  It would not function in any gear and the engine would rev easily
as if it was in neutral.

What could have happened?

The car was brought back to Oakland on a flat bed tow truck.
