[DML] engine tune-up



just take out the delorean for this summer so now its my daily 
driver, but the engine need a little tune-up because since i 
replaced some parts and clean up the engine bay now the engine 
misfire during driving, just like it was run out of fuel for a 
second it does it warm or cold and the acceleration is sluggish all 
time...so what are the parts i replaced this winter : distributor 
rotor/cap, spark plugs, wires, fuel accumulator, all hose clamps, 
belts, fuel filter, oil filter and oil

heres the test i have made : i checked the timing (13 degree without 
vacuum), i also adjusted the screw for throttle plates (now the idle 
is sitting at 750rpm and the microswitch is pressed when idling), i 
also play with the co level screw(allen bolt) i placed it to have 
the best engine sound/noise smells with 3-4 road tests, i also 
checked all vacuum hoses and spray wd40 where all hoses plugs in 
particular the big one under the fuel/air control unit, 

symptoms i see : when i start the car : the engine rpm is about 
2000rpm for 10sec and after it drop to 750 (a little higher when 
cold)

my idea is : i think the engine run too rich

if someone have a hints about it please help me because a delorean 
is better when the engine runs fine

thanks
yan
