[DML] Re: Delorean Owner

["jtrealtywebspannet" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Someone as resourceful as you can come up with a solution (it is a long time since DCS '04!). Anyway this is not the case on other cars where the K-Jet is already installed, just not working properly. As for the $4K bill, this is third hand innuendo. I would not doubt that the owner spent $4K at DMCH, I would just question that it was all spent on fixing the fuel system. It is VERY rare that an owner takes a car in and limits a shop to JUST one thing. Typically on a non-runner, there are LOTS of things to fix!

It's OK for you and Steve to talk about carburetors without actually using the word but when I bring it up you get all uppity about it. If an owner spent $4K on trying to repair his car (and it was all spent just on the fuel system) that just points out that whoever was working on his car did not know what they were doing. It is not a reason to discard the original fuel system, it IS a reason to get someone else to work on the car. For that much money he could have had the car shipped to someone who could have done it right for a lot less. We are not going to agree on this but for what it costs to convert to a carburetor an owner should be able to fix his K-Jet and probably have some money left over. Mark is also correct, there is a lot of knowledge and support from local clubs and individuals who are more than happy to assist other owners. Not all of them want to convert the car from a K-Jet to a carburetor. In a away I am surprised at you, Bill. You are obviously smart enough and familiar enough with the Bosch K-Jet system, yet you think putting a carburetor on is the way to fix any problem with the fuel system on a Delorean.
