If you take it off, you can check, repair/replace the 4 M6 bolts that hold the heat shields on. I did this when I refurbished the OE exhaust.

Hi. I bought tons of parts from DMCH and DMCFL over the last 10 years. I had issues with one or two parts, and I just called and explained the situation. They always made it right. So, I never had a...
It was a real photo. Actually there were a total of 9 Cybertrucks on 3 car carriers that were transported from the new factory in Austin TX, to the Tesla factory in Fremont CA. At least one of them...
If the shield is still present and intact, I would restore it. That's what I did to mine. Use gloves and a mask, and don't sand it. I painted mine with 4 coats of flameproof VHT aluminum paint.

My T-panel is centered, and the issue of seals hitting the hinge bolts is not related to the T panel as they are attached to the door.
My seals fold on the hinge bolts as well.
Hi Dave, here is how I glued mine:

When installed, the metal points down.

It's OK. We can agree to disagree. As I posted, there was evidence of water intrusion in both solenoids and the resulting shorting in the bottom portions of the magnet coils in the area where the...
Hi Dave, in case you decide to modify your original DLM, here is a thread that covers this.

Since I...
David, this Champion battery was the same price as for example, a Gold, Die Hard flooded lead acid battery. Better Cranking Amps, and same 4 year warranty. It is made by Clarios, who also make...
The research I did disagrees with this statement. An AGM battery is a drop in replacement for a non-AGM battery. However, you can't use a non-AGM battery in a car designed for an AGM battery.
I chose Champion AGM Battery, Group Size 78

Thank you. After an almost 10 year service life, my Interstate battery died, so I needed a reminder on how to attach the original battery strap. I tucked the extra strap around the clamp.

Rich, can you post this information again? The link does not work anymore.
Good day everyone,
Just as an update, the registration for this show is now open. They have added a specific category for DeLoreans, so when registering, you can select that one instead of...
Greetings Club members,
The DeLorean Club of Florida is planning to attend The Lake Mirror Classic Concours d'Elegance and Car Show in Lakeland FL, on Saturday, October 21st, 2023. Those that...
Interesting. The staked bearing must have been done on later compressor versions. I have two versions of pulleys; an original black pulley assembly from a 1981 date coded DeLorean compressor, and a...
Just checking in on this OEM door lock modification and refurbishment thread. Can't believe it's been almost 7 years, but I'm happy to report that the system has worked flawlessly ever since.
...
Great. That looks like the right one. Good luck with the job.
That video is a good one to reference. The bearing is lightly pressed into the belt pulley that he removed with the 3 jaw puller. Once you get that pulley off, all you have to do is press out the...
Greetings DeLorean club members and enthusiasts,

Thanks for sharing, but in my experience, you don't need to use these one-time use parts, which I agree makes maintenance down the line a pain (e.g., coolant flush and fill). As a matter of fact, I...
Well, I don't know. What I do know is that I love the 1969 Camaro, and when I heard GM was retro-styling the 5th generation after the '69, I wanted one. The appearance of the car on the 2007 ...
True enough. I remember seeing this thread.
This is me, so when I bought my car in 2013, I figured the cars would at least hold value throughout my generation's curve, but what I didn't count...
