can you put me on the list?

Build up of corrosion at the base of the cylinder liners?

The radiator is less and a year old and I’ll have to double check the fins on the compressor.

I recently had my R-12 system charged up and when the AC is running the temp climbs to 220 (and over, if I don’t turn it off) once I turn it off, goes back to a little over 160. This happens no...

Also DeLorean Performance has been amazing through this whole process.

No grinding then. Just grounding strap

I think I figured it out. There is no ground to the alternator. I had the shop swap out my tensioner with the one shown. What I didn’t know was the rod ends “Made of stainless steel, these rod...

As rare as getting a bad alternator from the vendor? With my luck it might be. Going to have o’reily test it tomorrow

I had the brand new alternator tested and this one failed as well. Is there something in the electrical system that could kill alternators?

It’s not a hot engine at all.

I added a ground. After adding the ground it started and started charging 14.5 volts. Then 3 min later, same thing. No charge. Battery light on. I then grinded off some of the coating on the back of...

That’s just the angle. Nothing is rubbing the belt.

I put a new alternator in and tested it with the multimeter. I got 13.47 volts. I took it on the road and after a half mile, volts dropped and battery light came on. The battery light works now and...

Did you swap out the pulley on that alternator or use the one in the pic?

Thanks for all the help. I spoke with Josh from DPI and seems the alternator is at fault. After a continuity with the alternator and the bulls head connector, it seems that the alternator might have...

So I changed out the bulb and cleaned the bulkhead connectors with contact cleaner. No light and not turning over now.

Only blame the alternator because it is not charging based on the dash gauge. Also we ran a multi meter on the battery;...

I recently got my car back from being in the shop for three weeks for replacing the fuel lines and coil overs. After picking up the car the battery light illuminate in ignition position 2 when...

Thanks for all the info. I ask because we used tape on the fuel feed line. I have since removed it and cleaned out the line and all the fittings. Now a bigger issue. The 90 degree elbow under the...

Does anyone know if the banjo fittings for the fuel lines need any sealant or is the copper washer sufficient?

Thank everyone for all the help. Seems that it was flooded and after waiting the night, it started up. I appreciate all the help.
