Let us know if you have any questions/trouble with the radiator/fan project. The Workshop Manual should cover everything, but sometimes things come up since 30+ years has passed since the car was...

Yeah, if the plugs are black, they should be replaced regardless of whatever issues you may be having.

I was trying to track down a misfire on my DeLorean for years. It was an intermittent...

Does the timing light register steadily on all 6 plugs? A weak spark could still cause a misfire and register on the light, but possibly intermittently. If a wire is arcing, the timing light would...

I've also run into this problem on various carburetors. Edelbrock/Carter carburetors are the biggest offenders, followed by Holleys.

Quadrajets, on the other hand, won't disengage the fast idle...

So can I. As soon as I heard the engine revving on acceleration, I could tell it was a misfire. A slight misfire will usually clear up above 2,000RPMs, but a complete miss will not. I think your...

I've been for a ride in a 400hp DeLorean. It is a completely different car.

I helped with this conversion at the very beginning (removing the PRV and test fitting the LS) and have been following...

"You've ruined your car! What about the resale value? Carburetors are old, outdated technology!"

I figured I'd get the ignorance out of the way lol. I can't wait to see this car in person.

The heat shields on the catalytic converters on the DPI exhaust on my wife's car started rattling due to failed welds a year or so ago. Josh has stated a few times that these systems have a lifetime...

Josh is right; my pedals were left over from my auto-to-manual swap and sitting on a shelf. My wife's DeLorean is still an auto, but pedal boxes don't really ever go bad, so I don't foresee ever...

My engine got hot one too many times, and I noticed that, when the engine would cool off after driving, I'd get a coolant leak from the head gasket to the outside of the engine. I thought I'd have to...

I have tires I know to be out of round on some of my classic cars (poorly made wide white wall radials) and the sidewalks are wide enough that it didn't matter and the car(s) drive smoothly.

I...

I just had to do this a few days ago.

I thought about making a spreader out of the bolts, but it was nice to get my frustrations out by using the hammer.

Those are the pictures I took during installation. I can take more at any time of any part requested.

The install was pretty straightforward. The bolt threads should face the...

I just installed these on both of our DeLoreans today and am very pleased with them. Every time I'd drive wither of our DeLoreans,...

Heater swap your garage.

True. But the shop that rebuilt (or swapped) it also couldn't even put the linkage together correctly. A shop that can't figure out how to put a carburetor linkage together correctly (especially when...

Bill has said that he didn't provide the carb that is currently on the car in question, and Chad didn't design a carb kit for the car he put one on. So, even if there was a carb kit with...

You're just jealous.

Every carburetor conversion is likely to be slightly different. Most DeLorean owners don't know how to work on carburetors, so when someone does have an issue with a carb on their DeLorean, only a...

This whole bullshit attitude of telling someone that they need an Alpine carb setup, put KJet back on their car, or convert to EFI instead of helping them figure out how to use what is on their car...

Did you really not get that "duel mixture" was a typo from my phone's autocorrect? It should be "fuel mixture".

I didn't have any experience with carbs until just a few years ago. It's called...

Your viewpoint doesn't make sense. With any if the 3 options listed, tuning will still be needed. Kjet has a duel muxture adjustment, EFI requires some skill to get running correctly, and finding and...

There are more options than the 3 listed above.

There is no "correct carburetor" for the DeLorean. The one that Bill uses is a 2 barrel motorcraft carburetor. It can be swapped out for a 2 barrel...

I know Mike understands those systems, as do I. Minimizing the situations that need correcting by ensuring there are no vacuum leaks, the lambda system is working properly, and setting the idle fuel...

Agreed.

Also, a lopey idle is separate from idle hunting. Aftermarket cams can have a lopey idle, and still maintain a fairly steady RPM (not hunting).
