[DML] quick question

["Lauren" <LPLand@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am pleased to say that I'm one of you now -- the proud owner of 
10440 - bought from Sean, ThinkStainless, today.  It isn't without 
problems, but none is insurmountable.  

Its cooling problems have been addressed on list and I will indeed 
see to them.  But this led to a delightful adventure driving home 
from Phoenix to Tucson.  It wasn't even hot today (by our standards) 
but the car overheated halfway down the freeway.  When I stopped 
at a service station in Casa Grande, one of those "BFE" towns in 
rural AZ that even _I_ laugh at (I grew up in NY, btw)  two blokes in a 
brand new Austin Cooper reeled in after me and were beyond 
thrilled to see a  Delorean in person.  Turned out they were on a 
photo-journalism tour of automotive US sanctioned by BMW and 
wanted to get photos of the car for their magazine story.  So with 
any luck, 10440 will be  famous  after their tour, albeit with its 
engine cover in the air  while it cooled down and sitting in a puddle 
of coolant .    It did overheat again a block from my house, so with 
the help of a neighbor, my husband pushed it into the yard - but we 
made it home!!  I did manage to get it up to 90 for a while on the 
freeway.

Sean -- I have a question for you ----- had you considered a bad 
thermostat as a potential cooling problem?
