    Thank you for checking for me. I was gonna replace them with newer fuses anyways. When the PO spliced the new radio in the left the other ends of the original fuse holders attached to the radio and...

    [Electrical] Rating for both radio inline fuses?

    What are the ratings for the two inline fuses for the radio? For reference there should be one on the purple wire and one on the green w/white tracer wire.


    A little background:

    So the PO had...

    Good to know, thank you. I'm just looking for it to heat up quicker and stay in closed loop longer while waiting in the emissions testing line in 30F weather. Other than that I'm not looking for a...
  4. [General] Considering converting to a heated narrow band O2 sensor

    Does anyone know of a good heated narrowband O2 sensor that will fit in the Delorean stock O2 sensor port in the exhaust? Or just the thread size of the stock O2 sensor would be very helpful as well...

    I ended up cutting the wires too. I found that the clips on both sides need to be spread apart, but on mine the spade connectors were corroded to the terminals which is why it wouldn't budge. Those...

    I'm pulling the original Ducellier alternator out and want to clean it up before I put it back in. It works and I've lowered loads (new radiator fans, tested starter, cleaned grounds and power, new...

    Last night put in a new otterstat and swapped plastic coolant reservoir with new metal one. Over the past week or so I also put in new rear shocks, sanded and painted springs and spring cups, TAB's...

    I just found a loose spot on my rear end that may sound like what you have as well. Not trying to hijack the thread, but it may be your solution too.

    On my passenger rear wheel, the trailing arm...

    That is correct, and the Hunter alignment rack I'm using already has DeLorean in it's built in list of cars surprisingly, and I cross referenced them and they match the numbers in the workshop...
  10. [Suspension] Need help figuring out what size shim I need for rear toe

    My passenger side rear toe is 0.25 degrees, while the driver side rear toe is .43 degrees. Now according to this service bulletin (http://www.dmcnews.com/bulletins/ST-34-1.82.pdf) in the middle of...

    Thank you. No it doesn't. For all the other tests it was 775 +/- 25rpm, and when I pulled into and out of the emissions center it was 775. I think the guy had his big fat foot wedged against the...

    No worries, I understand. I was making a learning experience out of it for myself and wanted to get familiar with all the components. I didn't replace or swap any components, just tested this and...

    Then why did HC, CO, and CO2 pass at 2500RPM with the vacuum advance line disconnected on the test I did today? I hope that didn't come off mean, I'm just trying to figure out what causes what since...

    So I went for a retest today since I had some time and I wanted to see if I made any progress. It failed in an odd way. When I got home I realized I left the vacuum line that goes from the thermal...

    So up until now I did not realize I had the duty cycle meter leads reversed. So 40% meant 60% and so forth. Ignore all my previous readings, here are the new and updated readings as of today's nice...
  16. [General] Perfect, thank you.

    Perfect, thank you.
  17. [General] So what would be causing the duty cycle to go...

    So what would be causing the duty cycle to go higher and the fuel to go richer when the RPMs are higher?

    Tomorrow I'm going to test the timing to see if that's the problem. Where in the workshop...

    Yup, a couple pages back on this thread I posted a video of all the injectors as well as a picture of the spark plugs. All seem to be spraying and sparking the same as the other lol.

    Note: I...

    So today I was able to take it out for a test drive to get it good and warm. The main reason for the test drive was to check the Lambda system. I had a duty cycle meter connected to the diagnostic...

    Also, on top of my previous post, I went digging through my files and found the passed emissions test from last year exactly 12 months ago. Here is last years emissions sheet. Nothing has been done...

    I did just ran a can of BG44K through the fuel system, so you may have got it figured out. I rented a fuel pressure tester from autozone but it doesn't come with the right adapters for CIS testing....

    Oh, ok. I thought the thermister was bad, good to know that's ok.



    So when testing the connector as I did with it off the Lambda module, I shouldn't be getting a ground to that pin? If that...

    So I didn't get a chance to do any running tests or any warm tests since I haven't had time to put the fuel injectors back in yet. But I did get a chance to check some sensors.

    I found that the...

    In the first post the original readings show the CO at idle is ok and it's almost double at 2500 RPM. I know I wrote it in kind of a confusing way, so I finally took the time to get an image of the...

    That's exactly what the car is doing, so everything there seems to be ok. What would be the next thing to test or the next path to follow?

    In the morning I'm going to get the car nice and warm and...
