The holes? ... I performed an "honest repair" using epoxy glue with some black pigment powder given to me by my guitar building friend. He said that

Ron. Thanks for all the great information here.
What is the process for using the test lamps?

Thank you Josh. Your info is much appreciated.
Based on your advice, I'll get a stock biased MC rated at 32/68 to replace the incorrect MC fitted.
Do you consider a 50/50 bias to be an improvement on the 32/68?
32 front 68 rear
I too am looking at the optimal mc for a stock brake set up?
What is the brake bias on the ones you manufacture Josh?
Ok thanks Rich. Mine does not have an OE Master Cylinder on there ... a Lucas one that doesn't seem to be used by other DeLorean owners.
I'm thinking that changing the cylinder will help. So what...

Thanks for the reply. The reason I'm asking is that I feel I have a brake issue. My car was bought as a project car. A previous owner fitted a non standard Lucas MC stamped FC2F 0795... A rare item...
I see that vendors sell a replacement Brake master Cylinder which has a bias of 32 front / 68 back, and is stated as being the original type cylinders fitted to DeLoreans. Ironically a 50 / 50 bias...
That is the bracket that moves up and down when you "power" the window. That bracket seems to have come off the window carrier and that is the reason why your window will not go up n down.
OK thanks for the really quick answer.
I'm trying to trouble shoot a problem on the binnacle lights.

Hi Rod.
Whilst recovering mine (outdoors) , the wind picked up and the fabric folded over when I was spraying the glue ... on the corner by the sun visor.
I let it dry overnight - I also purposely...
I purchased the clip SP10557, as they are advertised as also being used as tread plate clips.
When I received the new clips they don't have the barb as shown in one of the earlier pictures in this...
I used to post a lot on a guitar forum and always went back to my thread and described the outcome. People come back to me years later saying how much it helped.
You may be right Dave, insofar as...
I wonder how that all turned out?
I have the same problem - initially I had absolutely NO vacuum at the servo .. there was no vac tank in the car either !!!
Anyways ... if anybody wants to...
Hi Jesse try this one (which I have to say looks a lot like the other one I quoted - but seems to work ok? )...
The DeLorean uses 48 metal clips (Part Number 10672) to grip the strips (Part Nos 106388 - 106392 and 108465) that hold the grills to the engine cover.
I replaced my 40 year old rusty ones with...
