AW: [DML] Door struts and adjustment

["Elvis Nocita" <elvisnocita@xxxxxx>]

Jim,

we are talking about 170 to 180 Bar....

I already did what you wanna do, but I use refillable struts 
with a valve. Delorean Club Germany sells them.

Hi all and thanks for all the helpfull comments.

On our Lamborghini'd we have gas struts that assist in opening the 
doors and then hold them at the open postions. In time and also 
depending on the temperature the doors would sometimes sag or creep 
down. We found here a specialist that pumps the strut up. By 
platying with the pressure we can have the door opening it self as 
soon as you press the latch.
What i am going to do is remove both strurs and se how the doors 
are, my car only has 700 miles from new and I dont think anyone has 
played with them. If both torsion bars are at the same adjustment 
the doors should feel similar.
I will then take the struts to the expert, he can read the pressures 
in both and for example is the drivers in 7bar and the passenger is 
10bar then 8 or 9 bar would be ideal as the drivers is saggy and the 
passengers is fierce.
Do you all agree this is the right way?

Cheers to you all 
Jim
