Not necessarily. Since those two plugs in the back are the two that are difficult to get to, I would verify a few things:
1. Verify that the wires are actually pushed on far enough to "click" onto...
Are you sure it's oil and not carbon fouling from leaking injectors? If the injectors are leaking causing a rich mixture in those cylinders, it will look like oil on the threads and some black dry...
I posted this on Facebook under DeLorean Technical but figured I'd post is here as well.
How to regain a safety collapsible steering column after installing a DMCH, DeloreanEU or your own home...
Do you have a power antenna installed or was there one there? This notches on your vent fins are usually hand filed into the vent to allow the power antenna to clear past the vents. If you have a...
I just use a piece of coolant hose trimmed down and slit down the middle, holds it perfectly. As for High failure rate, I've had it on the car for quite some time and it's been working fine. If you...
Working?
Any particular reason you want an OEM one? The starter from a 1988 Eagle Premiere works perfectly, is smaller in size, more powerful and better overall.
Check your Idle Speed Motor to see if the valve inside of it is stuck, not uncommon. If you pull it off the engine, apply 12V to the center pin and then briefly (don't keep it connected) touch one of...
You probably are aware, but just an FYI: The lifetime warranty that DPI offers on those exhaust systems are non transferable.
Just Dashes is $$$$$. I would recover your original, again. The repro dashes from DMCH are nice, but sitting in another owners car that had one I could see from the top all the dimples in it where...
A proper conversion would be to replace the stock condenser with a parallel flow one, a compressor that is designed for R134a (since R134a operates at a higher head pressure) and upgrade the old...
What exactly is not working, when you use the door lock switches in the doors, from your keyless entry, or both?
To make sure it's not the harness, connectors or the switches inside the doors:...
If you have a smoke machine, use that to track down any air leaks, an air leak that is substantial in size can cause a whistle noise as well. Since you believe it was coming from the idle speed motor...
There was a post on Facebook about the louvres and someone used a textured paint prior to painting them with SEM trim black to mimic the original texture of them? Every car I've seen had a smooth...
Contact Josh S. He designed the swap kits and made them: https://www.lsdelorean.com/
Check your crossgate cable adjustment, that is one thing that would cause it to be difficult to shift into reverse. You can also remove the leather boot and the rubber resonator under it to see if...
Those signs look new, I wonder if they saw some of the posts going around about "saving" it or if someone told them.
So update: I was finally able to track the other end down, it was bolted to the wiper motor itself, but the connector was wedged between the motor and frame in an area you can?t see or get your hands...
Awesome, thank you!!
Hi All,
I was doing some work under the drivers side dash and found this single black wire with a white bullet connector just hanging there. I am still reassembling everything on the car so...
How long is the screw (measure from base of the head). If it's about 1.25", it could be one of the screws from your inertia switch, there are two screws holding it which look like this. If your...
Curious, did you torque all suspension bolts under pre-load when you reassembled everything?
They sell pre-formed 3/4 - 5/8 hoses, I posted this in an older thread on Facebook: https://www.ebay.com/itm/313420522063
There are shorter 3/4 - 5/8 hoses on there as well where you can save some...
I know this is an old post, but do you still have any available?
No power under load? Did you check for vacuum leaks?
