Subject: Engine Transplants?

Just was curious what other engines out there have been/can be or 
might be able to be squeezed into a DeLorean, with or without stock 
trannys combinations?

- New PRVs?
- Eagle?
- other makes?

Subject: yet another DeLorean in a music video

Passed on to me by my brother...Might have seen this one on MTV 
recently.  The group is called Junior Senior and they are from Denmark. 
 They produced this hilarious music video animation, which at one point 
features a DeLorean...complete with BTTF garb. (however brief)  You can 
download the video, (5.1 megs) from this website:

Payne,

Be absolutely certain you are not 1 off. I have been 1 off it the past and
was having the
same issue you are, wouldn't start spark, etc. Just about lost my mind and
I knew that I
wasn't 1 off. Finally after several other people looked at my problem one
guy figured it
out. Sometimes things can be tough to see. Also, if your new dist. cap is
marked with the
first postion, see if thats going to cylinder 1. If it is, check the
others. If it isn't,
check them all anyways, sometimes the 1 is marked wrong on the cap as it
may also be for
another car.

It is possible if it kicks that you may have 1 or 2 cylinders right and
not the others.
Also, check around and be sure you didnt knock any hose wires, etc. lose
when you did
this.

This is just my $.02 based on two issues I've had like this in the past,
you have my
sympathies

JB

My car hasnt had heat since I bought it. I looked for the hot water 
valve but could not find it anywhere in the engine compartment. Where 
is this valve usually located?

Hi,

What's that about making sure the dash light battery bulb? Are you saying
if the Dash bulb is gone the alternator isn't working to full capacity?

Cheers

Nick
