What have you done to your DeLorean today?

[Lwanmtr]

I use Invisible Glass cleaner, seems to work fine for me...granted I've only had mine sitting in the garage so far....but worked on our Focus too..no film on the window.

I use Sprayaway on my daily driver and never had issues with it. But it wouldn't touch the hazy film on the 37 yr old glass.

The hazy film on the inside is what bugs me.

I agree! You'd think that after 30+ years the DeLorean would be done outgassing.

Use a hydrocarbon based glass cleaner to cut through the "haze". Regular glass cleaners (Windex like) will not cut the crud and smears it around. I learned that at a dealer. They had a spay can of glass cleaner and it did a great job. BTW ... Invisible Glass is a hydrocarbon based cleaner.

Rebuilt my original door key using a 3D-printed button and an LED/switch that I borrowed from a cheap grill lighter.

Drove it to and from work today. On the way there, the high pressure relief valve burped a bunch of R-134a onto the streets of downtown Miami. (Hmm, I think I know what the terrible squeak in the a/c system was now!)

Thank goodness the window motors work... mostly. LOL

Replaced the trunk light with something a little less primitive. Much easier to see in there now.

With garage lights on and camera flash:

With no other source of light:

Replaced the stock 80 Amp Ducellier Alternator with the DeLoreanGo 110 Amp Alternator. Nice direct replacement for my stock unit and it now charges again.

I also replaced the 1-3 Valve Cover gasket as it had a slight oil leak.

this past weekend, I replaced my OE flexible brake hoses with Grady's new braided stainless hoses since i was due for a brake fluid flush anyways.

I no longer have to all but stand on the brake pedal to stop the car, or have it pull hard to the right under heavy braking due to a starting/partially collapsed front brake hose.

Installed relay update kit from DeloreanGo. Took the car for a drive and made sure everything was working. Everything did!

That’s so cool! The button on my door lock key is gone too. The light/battery are still in place, just nothing to turn it on. May have to look into doing this!
