Thought I'd throw my two cents in since I was in the same position as you roughly this time last year but my budget was only 20k. It took me until November to find a car that fit my requirements and...

I'm in Riverview and can help you out if needed. You'd need to come to me though and by temporary I hope you mean idling in the driveway or driving around the block, right? :) I have a brand new...
Wow, you have been busy!! I might ask you for some tips regarding that steering column bushing once I get around to replacing that. I think mine is basically non-existent at the moment. Regarding...
Just insured my my newly bought Delorean through Heacock. I'm a married 35 year old male with a perfect driving record. $324 per year with an Agreed Value of $35,000 and a 3,000 mile limit per year....
David,
While it might sound easy for you, pulling the transmission is a huge job for me. :-/ I have been extremely fortunate to have a fellow forum member offer to help me do this so I think it...
Engine oil has been steady the past two weeks. It has a tiny leak from the oil pressure sensor but not even enough to drip on the ground. Coolant is good as well. I agree the color is odd, so I...
The clutch line is braided stainless. That was replaced as well. There were a lot of updates/ parts replaced on the car which is a good thing. I think this trans fluid leak is a fluke, because other...
Nicholas,
I'm 99% sure it's not engine oil. I've never smelled Gear Oil before, but now that I have the smell is unmistakable. I agree i need to get this taken care of ASAP. The clutch, release...
Hi Dana! It could be the guide tube seal as well. It's pretty difficult to figure out exactly where it's coming from. I'm pretty sure it's somewhere on the transmission side of the release bearing,...
Hi David!
I'm pretty sure it's not clutch fluid. I've been keeping an eye on the clutch reservoir and it's still full. :-/
I have a leak coming from my transmission and I think it's coming from the lip seal on the main transmission shaft. Originally I was not sure where the leak was coming from and I had thought I solved...
I know this is an old post, but I just wanted to say THANK YOU for posting all the great information about this problem. I had an almost identical leak from my transmission but couldn't figure out...
Thank you very much for all these great pictures! That explains why it was spinning. I"ll try grabbing the end gently with a long nose pliers and use a very small 7mm wrench to tighten the nut. I'll...
So I looked at this more closely and it definitely is the small middle washer that seals the bolt that the sensor wire clamps to. It just spins when I try and tighten it. Is there any way to...
I just wanted to say THANK you to everyone for their suggestions. First thing was I had the battery recharged at Advanced auto parts since I don't have a battery charger (on the Christmas list!)....
Thank you! So I doubt it's the o2 sensor plug or oil warning light that is causing the no start issue. Here is an updated picture of the one that wasn't clear. It looks to be a ground wire coming...
Today is day 4 of being a Delorean owner and I already have an issue where the car won't start. In all honesty I figured stuff like this would happen so I'm not too upset, but I hope you all can help...
Thank you! I did plan on changing out the plastic coolant tank. As for the cover, I've seen a few neat looking ones that were stainless with the DMC logo on them. Maybe I'll try to track down where...
My name is Lee and I wanted to officially introduce myself as a new Delorean owner!!! On Wednesday I purchased #06929 from DMC Florida and I'm extremely excited to join your community. Even before...
Dave, Will do! So far, everything is going smoothly but until the papers are signed and the car is in my driveway I don't consider anything final! :)
Dan, that is awfully nice of you, but you may regret telling me that ;-). I will definitely keep you in mind as a resource since I will need all the help I can get. I'm actually in Riverview and I...
My name is Lee and I'm from the Tampa, FL area. I've loved DeLoreans since I was 5 years old and saw the car in Back to the Future. Ever since then it's been a life goal of mine to own one. Yesterday...
