82DMC12 replied to a thread [Engine] Test drove and it stalled. How do I troubleshoot problem? in General DeLorean Discussion

Good point. Fact is, for $60K the car should be running perfectly and driveable. If it's not even running right, who knows what else is wrong and...

82DMC12 replied to a thread [Engine] Test drove and it stalled. How do I troubleshoot problem? in General DeLorean Discussion

It's almost certainly a fuel problem, probably something in the control pressure circuit. The very first thing to do would be to get a k-jetronic...

Shouldn't be that bad at all if you have a machine shop do all the hard work, assuming your carrier pivot bolts aren't seized in the bushing sleeves.

Hi David, I'm Giovanni from Italy! I want to ask you some questions, can you email me at [email protected] ? I'll be pleased, as I prefere having contacts via email 'cause It's a bit more "personal" in my opinion! I need some informations about buying a Delorean, so I would be glad if you contact me.

Thanks, best regards!

Giovanni

Hey Paul! No, I've never been to Djibouti. I did spend some time in the sand over in Iraq though.

It seems like you have "the bug" too! Haha! Yes my second Delorean is in much better condition. I'm actually bringing it up to DMCMW in August. I love going up there; for me it's like going to Disneyland! Haha!

Did you bring your first DMC-12 to Germany with you?
baldwinsusa - 07-05-2012 03:12 PM

Sorry, I meant to say I am Air Force. But, was deployed to Camp Lemonnier in Djibouti (navy camp). Ever there? Cheers. Paul
baldwinsusa - 07-05-2012 03:11 PM

I see you are Navy, and had a D and sold it, only to get another. I was sent to Germany just after getting my first D.... so, I'll buy another from Dave and Julee at Midwest when I get back. How's your second D working out? Seems you like it much better. Take care. Paul
