I just visited this museum today and snapped some pictures. I had no idea this was there. One of the museum workers said it was donated by somebody up in Los Alamos. Well, I am one of three owners...
First $25k takes mine. C'mon out to NM. 5400 miles on the odometer, 2k miles on the tires. Original tires are here too.

Yeah, I made the mistake of saying something to this effect on FB and James Espey chimed in (last night/today). Is he always an asshole? He basically told me to f$@! off, the parts are his, etc. ...
Photoshoot at work: http://www.nerdhouse.org/delorean-mag-lab.jpg

Unfortunately, 2000 or 4000 tires a year isn't their market. 200,000 to a million a year is.

We did a photo shoot at work, Los Alamos National Laboratory (no, they won't give me any of the "good stuff"). The deputy director of the high magnetic field laboratory contacted me about a public...
How about free to a good home? Just pay me the $15 for the flat rate mailer and it's yours. Bought it from somebody here last year and never used it. It's clean, looks new. Fits the dash great. ...
I've had the occasional joker feel it was appropriate to open the door and get in to pose for the picture mommy was taking for them. I'm amazed at what people do.
This time I was bringing the car...
Bought the replacement bearings from Hervey and had to replace one within 500 miles. Buyer beware.
Don't listen to them. Get away from the car while you can! ;-)
Bah. Damn car.
Don't get me wrong, I love it, it just hates me.
My plan of action is to check the injectors, replace the rubber seals for them (ordered and on the way), and get a test pipe...
Yeah, my adjustments were very small. 1/16th turn at the very most. Really I was going for as tiny a change as humanly possible with my little allen wrench. I was warmed up. Fans kicked on a...
Clearly I'm not cut out for this. New sensor came in yesterday, got it in today without any trouble. I had my idle mix set lean to start with from two days ago. Went out for a 10 minute warmup...
Was afraid of that. I will buy the new one vs playing roulette with another from DMCH (yep, the one I have is "new" from last June.).
-Bob
Okay, new data. I went out and jacked up the car to re-connect that O2 sensor and lo and behold, it was connected the whole time. Fine. I go for a 10 minute drive, come back and hookup my dwell...
I've heard of a high altitude mod for the car but can't really find anything. Is this something documented in the workshop manual? Anything more than just adjusting idle mix for the altitude?
...
Any resolution to this? My car runs rich too as I'm at about 7400 feet elevation in New Mexico. I had no idea till a couple weeks ago when a friend followed me up a mountain to about 9000 feet and...
I had a cold idle issue as well. Really weak. No power. Just angry. Once warmed up all was good. Turns out some joker had 2 fuel lines attached to the fuel distributor swapped when I bought it....
Racing Southwest 2015 Jemez cruise. The guy behind me snapped a shot of my car. High altitude (9,000ish feet) meet up. Last year was totally snowed out but I did get to go this year.

It was a nice 3 ring binder, and a shrink wrapped stack of pages that I had to punch to get into the binder. Talked to...
Yeah, but they couldn't be bothered to buy a ream of drilled paper when they printed mine. $50 and I got to punch the holes. It's still better than any scan of the old manual you can find on the...
Sorry. I limited my response to only what you asked. Didn't know you were asking for the function of the clutch, only the slave cylinder.
-Bob
You step on the clutch pedal and have somebody watch the slave deflect the fork on top of the transmission.
