This isn't exactly an answer, but... When Rob Grady checked out my D at the 
De Lorean Mid Atlantic Spring Dustoff a few weeks ago, he remarked that there 
was a bypass wire coming from my fuel pump. He speculated that there was a 
problem with the inertia switch, which I think is original, and which I have 
yet to replace. If I understood him correctly, that means there is a way to 
permanently bypass the inertia switch from the pump to ground. (You didn't 
state what exactly the nature of your bypass was, but I assume it was 
different from that.) Of course, you shouldn't do that permanently, but it 
might be useful as a test. Not being an ace mechanic, I'm not gonna look 
under my bonnet and tell you what it's hooked up to, since that could be even 
more trouble. But you might want to call Rob. I've always found him very 
helpful on the phone. (Or whoever you got your inertia switch from.)
