Hi Brad,
I bought my car as a restoration project from DMCFL. I couldn't be happier with the car, the deal, and the service afterwards. The guys are great. I'd recommend a trip there when they're open to look, sit in a car, and ask questions.
Good luck with your search. PM me with any questions.

Welcome Steven! Congratulations on your purchase! There is a vast knowledge and braintrust here. Although there are a couple to several causes for your issues (which are typical) here's a start:
For pulsing idle search for idle hunt. Google works better. Just include Delorean in the string. Here's 2 threads that I have bookmarked:
