What have you done to your DeLorean today?

Oooh! Shiny!

Today I installed a new fuel pump I had sitting in a box for about 6 years. My pump was making scary noises and sputtering when going up hills today. Sure hope that fixes the problem. Did the ol' spring in the fuel pickup hose trick a few years back as well. If this problem surfaces again I'll probably have to drop the cash on the new all-in-one unit. :(

Loaded the DeLorean on the back of flat bed tow truck headed to DMC Florida to find out why it won't start. Hasn't run since November.


Should have added. I upgraded my AAA to Premier and get one 200 mile tow a year for only 50 dollars a year. I'm 150 miles away so I could get one tow a year for only 50 bucks

Good luck, Lenny! :)

Parts keep arriving. Today, two of these showed up...

The only thing I am missing are the step-up transitions, which are lost in the mail somewhere. And I just finished midterm exams and thought I'd have some time this weekend... *sigh*

It's was so nice to go out in the garage and fire up the D for first time this year after a 4 1/2 month slumber. Tomorrow I'll be taking it out for the first drive and it's still technically WINTER even though the temp will be near 60 or better. This may be the earliest start to the driving season I can remember. Last year we still had 2 feet of snow on the ground at this time.

Removed the auto transmission governor and cleaned it before it gets rebuilt. Continued scrubbing the undercarriage

Yeah - it's really clear and nice here too, but I'm still waiting for the first heavy rainstorm as there are still clouds of salt dust on the roads.

Rained two days straight here. Roads are clear!

Had a tech day in Lodi! We got a lot done...

- David P got new tie rod ends, a new alternator, and a new angle drive cable bracket (as well as a brake bleed)
- Stephen P got new stainless brake hoses and a brake bleed
- I got a clutch and brake fluid flush and bleed
- Clint got his car lovingly hand cleaned with stainless polish
- David S got a chance to drive his Toyota and supervise :)

I also crossed 58,000 miles today. 130 miles round trip to the tech day with zero problems (other than the fuel smell I mentioned in another thread)
