[doc] First weekend with my new Delorean



I picked the car up from Chatham dock on Friday and drove it home
through rush hour M25 traffic, the Dartford crossing was fun having to
get out to pay the man.  I'm very pleased with the car its in excellent
condition but I've noticed a few problems

1.      On Saturday twice while driving the engine died.  I noticed the
plunger in the inertia switch was down so I had to hold this up while
turning the ignition and eventually it started.  Have I got a faulty
switch and what is the correct method of starting, the plunger wouldn't
stay up until the car was running again.

2.      On Sunday morning I went to start the car put the key in the
ignition and heard a relay click I turned the key and the car was
totally dead, no power at all and no lights.  I thought the battery was
flat so checked it with a voltmeter and it was fine.  Eventually after
about 30min I was in the driving seat heard a relay click and then all
power returned it started fine from then.  What was wrong?

3.      What is that little metallic honk noise coming from behind the
passenger seat?

4.      I've put a pic of my relays on in the picture section in
vin#2250 could someone look at it and tell me if any should be replaced
and why has one been jumped with cables?

Cheers

James
