Of course I'll have replay my experience at the local DMV when I registered my Delorean back in '84. While waiting for the clerk to look over my bill of sale and chatting with a car dealer who was also in line, the clerk looked at the purchase price ($20K+) and shouted, "What kind of a car is this Delorean anyway?" To which I replied, "It not a car. It's a time machine!" Good thing for me she had a sense of humor.

I had a problem with hard start when the engine was warm. I replaced the Actuator which did no good other than lighten my wallet. On the advise of Jerry Rine (top drawer DeLorean mechanic - Columbus, Ohio) I had a Volvo dealer replace the checkvalve in the fuel pump (it was a new pump, too). The car has run perfect ever since. Cost was most reasonable $30.00. I had the fuel pump area opened for them!

Did you ever notice that DeLorean owners come in all ages? This is a car that can't be stereotyped to one age class. From young to old everyone seems to love the "D". So within what age range do you fall under? (Identities are anonymous) ----
Please select one of the following:
o 16-22 o 23-29 o 30-36 o 37-43 o 44-50 o 50-56 o 57-63 o 63- Over

Hello,
I'm really sorry for posting this, but I have no other way of contacting this person.
I would like to talk to the person who bought the DMCL necktie, formally owned by Mike Loasby, from James Espey a couple of weeks ago.
Please email me privately...Thanks!!!

Well, I have to admit that I despise taking my vehicles in for emissions, especially my D. Last time I had it in, all the employees stopped what they were doing & swarmed. Ok, I admit it...that was the fun part. It was also fun "having" to open the door to hand over the paperwork. You know how it is...that window is just too small to get the job done. :^)
Anyway, the tester is entering info into his computer & says, "So, this was made by GM, right?" I said, "No, it was made by DeLorean." I get a blank stare...he says, "But GM made it, right?"...
Again, I said, "No, it was made by DeLorean...they were their own company." Another blank stare. Now I've done it...there is no classification for DeLorean in his computer. He studied the screen for a while & told me that he put it under Dodge, since they both begin with the letter "D".
It irritates me that I'm required by law to have my D tested, yet they have no provisions for it in their computer. The good news is that I passed!

<html> For those who have always wanted a copy of Stainless Steel Illusion without paying $120, there may be a possibility of purchasing a brand new copy sometime soon. I just read that Barnes and Noble (bn.com) will be offering a print on demand service. It uses an IBM machine that takes a scanned book, prints it, and binds it, with no noticable loss in quality. Out of print books need to be located, then scanned; I am unsure how difficult this would be for a book like SSI. Apologies if this is a little off-topic, but I thought that this might be of interest to owners and enthusiasts who are having a hard time finding information about the car, the company, and the man. The print on demand service is set to debut this January.
