What have you done to your DeLorean today?

Started my journey into the Valley of Death last night. Removed rear fascia and bumper assembly. Removed idle speed motor, w-pipe, air filter box, pipe of agony and throttle shield. Tonight I tackle the fuel injection disassembly.

Ugh...

[Bitsyncmaster]

Got my headlight buss bar cut and drilled. Next is to tap the holes, finish re-wrapping the harness, finish and connect my circuit for my LED side light blinkers.

Started her up and went to get fresh gas. Noticed that my steering bushing must have completely disappeared as the column is banging around like never before. Resolved not to drive her anymore until the new bushing and Martin's new intermediate shaft arrives.

Installed the new oil pressure sender from Hervey and I hope it works well, the original had a real sketchy connection and removing the wire to replace the ring terminal would have sheared off the sender's stud. While in the area I also started an oil change, im going to cut open the filter to see if there is anything big and metal in the element. Then I removed the starter, alternator, and jump leads and began cleaning and bundling them up properly, they always looked so messy and loose.

Worst of all being under there, I was looking up I got pretty depressed about the sad state the frame and hardware still is back there. Im going to need to do alot of dissembling and hardware replacement, and now the cooling system is leaking worse than ever, must be the cold.

installed the new charcoal canister in the pontoon section. Replacing the missing one that some knuckle head removed. Was wondering why i kept smelling gas in my garage. Got the new speaker mounts in for the foot wells. Smoked out the tail lights and should be re installing them with the back up camera this week.

also installed the last set of third break lights. No way anyone can not see me stopping now. The main lights, two 14 in LED bars on the top luver and an led strip on either side of the rear window. Actually looks really cool when stopping.

Can u post pics up when you're all installed? I'd love to see it.




Today January 28, 2012: Hooked up dwell meter. Found my Craftsman dwell meter is dead. Hooked up digital dwell meter from harbor freight. Found that dwell meter is alive. Adjusted setting a little bit, but will verify with an analog dwell meter shortly.

Checked oil: was about half way between marks on my dipstick. Topped off.

Worked on back wall speakers. All ok now.

Removed flux capacitor to make some adjustments and tighten some things up.

Installed lower temp otterstat. Had to convince the retaining clip that it wanted to go back on. I won. Tightened back down all the clamps. Checked for leakies- none found.

Heading to Pep Boys for new license plate lamp and new front turn signal lamp.
